Is this question about Forms problem & solution.

SET_ITEM_PROPERTY built-in can change item color.

What do you call "randomly"? When is it supposed to happen? All the time your form is running? If so, try timer.

It seems that none of IF conditions is met.

Check what GET_ITEM_PROPERTY returns (i.e. display its value using the MESSAGE built-in).

It might be possible that you have to initially set the BACKGROUND_COLOR (in WHEN-NEW-FORM-INSTANCE trigger, for example).
