(button and backgroundworker are both in the same form, and color changes should appear in a different form called Status)

[code] I want to check checkbox and change color on one label and enter date on another.Then I want to uncheck the checkbox, restore the color on one label and clear the other..This works perfectly but only after the initial check. On the first check the correspsonding labels are handled properly but all the other labels are changed also, ie. the color changes on one set and the other set cleared.I can see the problem is in the Else If statements but can't understand why if the coding iswrong it works ok after the first check.

I want to have some labels on a form with the same font color as the caption on my group boxes, and furthermore I want these colors to change if the user has applied a different Theme on their system.

I am having a slight problem using the color change alongside an if and then value. What I want is for gtotal.text to display in red IF the value drops below a "saved" number previousley used in the program. this number is used as "addicost"
Below is a snippet of the code that is most likely to be wrong. The color of gtotal always displays as red by the way. The only time it displays as black is when it first appears on the screen, but after "recalculating" the number in gtotal, it always displays as red.
If total > addicost Then gtotal.ForeColor = Color.Red gtotal.Text = String.Format("Total: £{0}", total.ToString())
[CODE]...
I have now noticed that by calculating in such a way that G total = 0 makes it display in black. So maybe addicost isnt saving properly? which would be insane since I use it at another point in the program okay.
Private Sub Button2_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click Dim AddCost As Double Dim Total As Double AddCost = My.Settings.AddCost
