Serialize Color to XML

[lux]

I have :

enum MyEnum{d1, d2};
class MyData
{
public Color color{}..//get, set
public MyEnum enum{}..// get,set
}

I'm serializing MyData object to xml using XmlSerializer.
MyData pc = new MyData();

XmlSerializer xs = new XmlSerializer(typeof(MyData));

TextWriter writer = new StreamWriter("c:\\pra.xml");

xs.Serialize(writer, pc);

It works but color is not serialized. Why? Color is enum like my MyEnum.

Use the method ToArgb and From Argb

Cor's advise re ARGB is correct.

For the record, color is not an enum; the simple/system colors are
static properties, not enum values.

(still missing the "u" though... ;-p)
