The references to Color in the VB code

For the Color property to work properly in this code, the System.Drawing namespace needs to be referenced
in the Imports section.
AUTHOR NOTE: The reader is correct in stating the need to import the System.Drawing
namespace when using the color constants like Color.White. Unfortunately,
this section demonstrates three solutions but the full code is only shown
for the first solution and that solution does not need the imports
statement. This can be a little confusing. While the book text and code is
correct, it probably would have been good to add a tip indicating the need
to import the System.Drawing namespace for solutions 2 and 3.
