You want to change this permanently so it cannot be changed by choosing the system colors ?Quote:

There is no such Property for the caption bar, but there is some way to have forms in any way you wantQuote:

As it uses API's it shouldn't be too complicated to transform the priniples you find there to your own form.
A very easy way is done in my example about how to create Dockable Forms Part #1( Link in the borttom of this post ) I'm using an ownerdrawn form and painting the nonclient area myself.
