Colors are special values that begin with "cl"  try clRed  (not a
string).

 Button1.BorderColor := clRed;

Man,

| i know it, but I get Undeclerated identifier error

I just looked at your posted code line again.  TButton doesn't have a
Border property that I can see.  What component are you using?  It
would seem that you may be using something that isn't correctly
descended from a Class.  Does the Caption, Font property have a Font
Color property?

yes, it's running, but how can I use with a string variable like following 
code

var
  str: string;
begin
  str := 'blue';
  Button1.BackColor := str;
end;

Well, that's a little tougher. The string name has to be an exact match
of the color name.

procedure TWinForm118.Button1_Click(sender: System.Object; e:
System.EventArgs);
var
  CCV: System.Drawing.ColorConverter;
begin
  CCV := System.Drawing.ColorConverter.Create();
  Self.BackColor := Color(ccv.ConvertFromString('Red'));
end;

I don't "do" ASP or .NET, so I'm afraid I'm not going to be of much
help.  Sorry.
