can you bind to backcolor/forecolor using VStudio Webapp?

[Dennis J]

I can successfully create a data set from an SQL query ( using oledbadapter
and generated dataset) that returns status as text and a color as text. But
when binding to the forecolor or backcolor properties an error occurs at
runtime ( page.databind produces Specified cast is not valid).



I have created many pages but this one problem is driving me crazy since the
other bindings work so well.



Thanks,
