VB 2005 - Change an object's color using a variable

[guyfromfl]

I am trying to change an object's color by passing a variable to the object

 

I know i left alot out but this is just to show you what i have in mind:

sub mnuColorsBlue_click
     strBackColor = "Color.Blue"

     changeColor(strBackColor)
end sub

sub changeColor(strBackColor)
     me.mnuMoney.BackColor = strBackColor
end sub

 

is this even possible? vb keeps telling me the color has to be less than infinity

Have you tried somehtng like

 

        newColor = _

        Color.(255, 0, 0, 0)

 

    ( which is black) try writing it in a value instead of the color it self.
