change button backcolor

[uoghk]

By default, a button backcolor is "Accent 1, Darker 25%" as below photo.

I use code to change btnAllergy backcolor
If I set Me.btnAllergy.BackColor = "Accent 1, Darker 25%", then it returns error.
Then I set Me.btnAllergy.BackColor = Me.btnExit.BackColor, but it shows as below photo.

If you do this:

Msgbox "VBA says the allergy button's back color is: " & Me.btnAllergy.BackColor & vbcrlf & "And the exit button's back color is: " & Me.btnExit.BackColor

Does it give you any idea?

Thanks Edgar.
Actually I want to set the Allergy button's backcolor as same as the Exit button (which is light blue).
But when run the code

Me.btnAllergy.BackColor = Me.btnExit.BackColor

The Allergy button's backcolor becomes dark blue as in the second photo.

Me.btnAllergy.BackColor = Me.btnExit.BackColor

Odd. Only seems to work if "Use Themes" property is set to yes.

if you look at the color picker you can get the RGB values. Then use the RGB() to set your color.

me.MyControlName.BackColor = RGB(178,240,196)
