Is it possible to change the background color of toolbars,
menu and frame of the main application.

SetSysColors has too much impact.
It affects other applications as well.

WM_CTLCOLORDLG has not enough impact.
It affects only one dialog.

Something in between.

You could subclass the window procedure for the windows in question and 
handle the non-client background painting yourself.
