Solution 2

you need to use the events Enter And Leave for the button :
On Enter change to yellow and on Leave return as it was

C#

private void button1_Enter(object sender, EventArgs e)
     {
         button1.BackColor = Color.Yellow;
     }

     private void button1_Leave(object sender, EventArgs e)
     {
         button1.BackColor = SystemColors.Control;
     }

Hope it will help.

Hi jokler.007 thanks for ur response ...but it is working when click event happened on the button .but the requirement here is for example if we place mouse on >(execute)button the back ground appears yellow.in that way it should come.

I am not getting what you need exactly, if you need on mouse event to change color use this :
private void button1_MouseEnter(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
button1.BackColor = Color.Yellow;//change the button color
}

private void button1_MouseLeave(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
button1.BackColor = SystemColors.Control;//return to normal color before changing
}

You need to use Focus Events for this

Events -> Focus Section

Enter
Leave

These two events are need to use
