Hi friends,

I have a VB routine to change the color of some buttons inside the flowLayoutPanel1 control.

It is giving error, stating that "Expression of type Control can never be of type VisualStyleElement.Button in line If TypeOf op1 Is Button Then.

I can't figure out the error.

Code:

		For Each op1 As Control In flowLayoutPanel1.Controls
			If TypeOf op1 Is Button Then
				Dim butt As Button = DirectCast(op1, Button)
				butt.BackColor = Color.PeachPuff ' Substitua pela cor desejada
			End If
		Next

Thank ou

    Try specifying the full name: System.Windows.Forms.Button instead of Buttons. Or adjust the Imports directives.
