hi
I write below codes to change the color when focused ,the problem is in "?" what should i write instead of "?"
void
textbox1_KeyDown(object sender,KeyEventArgs e){
if (e.KeyCode ==Keys.Enter){
textbox2.Focus();
name.BackColor=?;
}
}
Please don't take this as an offense, but you are trying to do some strange things.
1. You are writing unmaintable code. You really don't want to write code that regulates navigation through your form like this.
2. You are changing the default behavior of a Windows UI. The Enter key normally is a key shortcut to for example a default button. Navigating through your form is conventionally done by using the Tab key. I would not change this unless this would be a hard requirement of your customer. I would try to talk it out of his head though.
Configuration of the navigation through a form is done by using the TabIndex property.
I would do this like so (no code, just clean understandable, maintainable markup):

<TextBox Grid.Row="1" Grid.Column="1" Width="200" TabIndex="2"/>
<TextBox Grid.Row="2" Grid.Column="1" Width="200" TabIndex="3"/>
<TextBox Grid.Row="3" Grid.Column="1" Width="200" TabIndex="4"/>

Dear ehsano2,

From your code, I do not understand what is 'name' object? Clarify which color (back color of what) you intend to change.
If you want to change the background color of textbox2 then you can do so by
textbox2.Background = Brushes.Blue (any brush object).
