c# - Change backcolor according to color selected from combobox -

in form have combobox. has color names red, yellow, etc.

i want change backcolor form match color selected combobox when click button. far have this:

private void button_pass_click(object sender, eventargs e) {     if (combobox_color.selectedtext == "red")     {         this.backcolor = system.drawing.color.red;     }     else if (combobox_color.selectedtext == "yellow")     {         this.backcolor = system.drawing.color.yellow;     }     else     {         this.backcolor = system.drawing.color.blue;     } } 

when click button, form's backcolor set blue. doing wrong here?

you can use color.fromname

this.backcolor = color.fromname(combobox_color.selecteditem.tostring()); 

if name parameter not valid name of predefined color, fromname method creates color structure has argb value of 0 (that is, argb components 0).
