Here goes how to do it in C#:

if (label1.ForeColor == Color.Black)
				label1.ForeColor = Color.Blue;

Or you can do this: (VB6 only)

Label1.ForeColor = RGB(Int(Rnd() * 256), Int(Rnd() * 256), Int(Rnd() * 256))

Label1.ForeColor = RGB(Int(Rnd() * 256), Int(Rnd() * 256), Int(Rnd() * 256))

VB.NET (Very Similar)

Randomize()
Label1.ForeColor = Color.FromArgb(Int(Rnd() * 256), Int(Rnd() * 256), Int(Rnd() * 256))

C# (Google told me about the Random class)

Random Rnd = new Random();
Label1.ForeColor = Color.FromArgb((int)Rnd.Next(256), (int)Rnd.Next(256), (int)Rnd.Next(256));

doesnt change colors for me

[iBotPeaches]

It will change once, maybe put a timer on it at 1000MS and then let it do it say 100 times, or something. Or until you close the app

[yourmuminabagel]

You Need Two Timers.
Make them both enabled and change timer1's interval to 50.
And change the fore colour of the label to black

[Joe Walls]

Mine just blinks fast, no colors except black.

Edit:
Fixed. How can I put this in Adobe Dreamweaver?
