if you look at the datatype of BackColor, you'll see its of datatype Color,
so you know you need to pass a Color. Now we look in the doc's for the Color
class. Here we see a bunch of ways to create a color, from name, from RGB,
etc. so after 60 seconds of reading the doc's we get:

newCell.BackColor = Color.FromArgb(0xfafad2);

TableCell: BackColor Property But No BackGround Property?

I am using an ASP:Table Control to make a table. I know that the HTML TD tag
has a background attribute and a bgcolor attribute. The TableCell has a
BackColor property, which is the equivelant of the HTML bgcolor attribute,
but what can I use as an equivelant for the HTML background attribute?
Thanks.

http://www.nathansokalski.com/I would have to look but my first thought is this. The control will render
whatever attribute you add. So you can add it declaratively with
attribute="value" syntax or on in the code you can add it through the
Attributes collection on the control.

C#
control.Attributes.Add("Name", "Value");

I think you can do this too, because I think it is a NameValueCollection
which means it handles the add automatically.
control.Attributes["Name"] = "Value";
