    you can also use two label controls one under the other and change the one in the back to a gray color..

    It's rather easy. Create two labels and make them both (or at least just the one that'll be on top) have a transparent background (ie, so that you don't have a large grey box around it). Then, set the first one's color to black and the second one to grey. Place the first one exactly over the second oneand just move it a pixel left and a pixel up. Ctrl+Arrow Keys helps to get it just right. There ya go.
