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))

Or you can do this: (VB6 only)

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

Mine just blinks fast, no colors except black.

 

Edit:

Fixed. How can I put this in Adobe Dreamweaver?
