Re: Colors

Isn't it just...

Dim col As System.Drawing. Color
ColorDialog1.Sh owDialog()
col = ColorDialog1.Co lor
Me.BackColor = col

(....I've never used the ColorDialog before so I may have something
fundamentally wrong.)

What is ff808040? A String? Integer?

Have a look at Color.FromARGB and Convert.ToInt32 (<string>, 16)
