At least in D7, if you are using XP Themes, then to change the background color of a label you need to set the Transparent property to False in the FormCreate or FormShow. Changing it in the IDE has no effect. It appears to be a bug in D7 and I'm not sure if it's been fixed or not in later Delphi versions.
