Daniel, If the effect you are after is for the background of the form to be yellow, you can skip the MESSAGE_BACK_COLOR YELLOW part (which I couldn't see having any effect on the background color of the message area at all) and set the background color of the WINDOW and the background color of the BUTTONS to YELLOW as here:
