Use the HighLightBorderColor property to change the highlight border's color. Use the BackColor and ForeColor properties to customize the menu's colors. Use the ShadowColor property to specify the color used to paint the shadow border on the left side of the drop down menu, when the Appearance property is Flat. Use the Picture property to load a picture on the control's background. Use the ForeColor property to specify the item's foreground color. Use the SelectOn property to specify whether the control selects an item if the user presses or releases the mouse button.
