How would I set one BackgroundColor = to another Textboxes BackgroundColor property.

You have to do this in the code behind of the report.

Answer 2

In Visual Studio/Business Intelligence Management Studio:

1. Select textbox (or table cell)
2. In the Properties window, you'll see the BackgroundColor attribute
3. Click the dropdown arrow to get a list of colour options, or you can type in the color code if you know it
