Changins a brush's background color

[cjqp]

Thanks for the help so far! What I'm trying to do is set up a program that will color another window's bg. I have tried the SetBkColor/Mode API, and through what I have discovered I need:

SetBkMode Form1.hdc, 2
SetBkColor Form1.hdc, RGB(0, 0, 255)
 
Dim hBrush As Long
hBrush = CreateSolidBrush(RGB(0, 0, 255))
 
SetBkColor GetDC(hBrush), RGB(0, 0, 255)
SelectObject Form1.hdc, hBrush
DeleteObject hBrush
 
dargb = CreateRectRgn(0, 0, 1024, 1024)
PaintRgn Form1.hdc, dargb

This won't color the form, but commenting out the SelectObject line will color the form the selected FillColor.

Any other ideas?
