Sounds like a school project. It would be better to learn to fish rather than be given a fish.

I'm not a VB programmer, but I have written a bit of VB. You change a text objects color the same way you'd change it's font or size. I assume you are using Visual Studio or some other visual IDE. If so, you just select the object (the text), then view the properties. You'll see a property for the text color. Once you know the name of the property you can change it programmatically.

Since I don't do VB, I don't know what references to point you to, but for code examples, download the Microsoft VB Code Sample library.
