Here you go . I have attached the solution file as well . The forms app basically contains 3 text boxes namely RedBlue & Green . On their text changed event the logic is written . You can take care of the validations . private void Red_TextChanged(object sender EventArgs e) { int red green blue = 0; if (Red.Text == string.Empty) red = 0; else red = Int32.Parse(Red.Text); if (Green.Text == string.Empty) green = 0; else green = Int32.Parse(Green.Text); if (Blue.Text == string.Empty) blue = 0; else blue = Int32.Parse(Blue.Text); System.Drawing.Color fontColor= Color.FromArgb(red green blue); Message.ForeColor = Color.FromArgb(red green blue); System.Drawing.Color bgColor = Color.FromArgb(fontColor.ToArgb() ^ 0xffffff); this.BackColor= bgColor; } private void Blue_TextChanged(object sender EventArgs e) { int red green blue = 0; if (Red.Text == string.Empty) red = 0; else red = Int32.Parse(Red.Text); if (Green.Text == string.Empty) green = 0; else green = Int32.Parse(Green.Text); if (Blue.Text == string.Empty) blue = 0; else blue = Int32.Parse(Blue.Text); System.Drawing.Color fontColor = Color.FromArgb(red green blue); Message.ForeColor = Color.FromArgb(red green blue); System.Drawing.Color bgColor = Color.FromArgb(fontColor.ToArgb() ^ 0xffffff); this.BackColor = bgColor; } private void Green_TextChanged(object sender EventArgs e) { int red green blue = 0; if (Red.Text == string.Empty) red = 0; else red = Int32.Parse(Red.Text); if (Green.Text == string.Empty) green = 0; else green = Int32.Parse(Green.Text); if (Blue.Text == string.Empty) blue = 0; else blue = Int32.Parse(Blue.Text); System.Drawing.Color fontColor = Color.FromArgb(red green blue); Message.ForeColor = Color.FromArgb(red green blue); System.Drawing.Color bgColor = Color.FromArgb(fontColor.ToArgb() ^ 0xffffff); this.BackColor = bgColor; } If you are unable to see any solution file you can message me your mail id . I can send it across to you . However you should be able to figure out the solution with the above code . Thanks Priyan If you found this useful Please mark this as Answer

Hi Joe  Say greenblue and red are 3 text boxes with respective names and there is a 4th text box named 'randomText' which contains some particular text whose color should change based on other 3 text boxes . Code logic would go like this If(green.Text != 0 && blue.Text==0 && red.Text==0) { randomText.ForeColor=Color.Green; //make sure you have System.Drawing assembly reference Form1.BackColor=Color.Red; // Form1 is your form's name } Thanks Priyan If you found this useful Please mark this as Answer
