How can I set a form's backcolor to a custom color (such as light pink) using C# code?

+2  A: 

With Winforms you can use Form.BackColor to do this.
From within the Form's code:

BackColor = Color.LightPink;

If you mean a WPF Window you can use the Background property.
From within the Window's code:

Background = Brushes.LightPink;

If you want to set the form's back color to some arbitrary RGB value, you can do this:

this.BackColor = Color.FromArgb(255, 232, 232); // this should be pink-ish
