I'm using an Access database to drive a web site and the colors of various table backgrounds are stored in Access. I want users of the Access database to be able to select colors for the site, but my mappings between named colors, HEX values and the Long Integer values used in Access are not jibbing. Anyone have a nice list laying around? Danny J Lesandrini dlesandrini@hotmail.com
