HI
i am building my application in C# , i created Mapppoint shapes now i need to fill those shapes with yellow color. but when i say this


MyShape = oMap.Shapes.AddLine(objLoc1,objLoc2);
MyShpe.Fill.ForeColor = Color.Red;

then error comes that
"Can not convert implicitly System.drawing.color to int.
please help me.

MapPoint's colors are specified using a different object type.
Try:

MyShpe.Fill.ForeColor = vbRed;

or vbBlue, vbYellow, etc.
See the MapPoint programming documentation for further details.

does c# understand vb6 colors? If it does, then show me where!

Oh I'm sorry! I misread your original post and was thinking that you were using VB! D'Oh!
