How to identify a RelativeLayout in the activity

I need to change the background color from a RelativeLayout programmatically.

In the XML file I have done this:

<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:id="@+id/milayout"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:background="@color/negro"
    android:orientation="horizontal"
    android:padding="5dip" 
    >

Then on the activity file, I am trying to declare the layout to change later the background color of the RelativeLayout, as I have seen in other posts here in SO.

RelativeLayout MyLayout = (RelativeLayout) findViewById(R.layout.milayout);

But I get there an error: "Create field milayout in type 'layout'"

What am I doing wrong?

look at your code

RelativeLayout MyLayout = (RelativeLayout) findViewById(R.layout.milayout);

change to this

RelativeLayout myLayout = (RelativeLayout) findViewById(R.id.milayout);
