Those numbers are just the hex version of your color. (Red Green Blue values). Just create a Color object using those values and assign it to the back color.

Alternatively you could use something akin to:

MyTable.Row(n).BackColor = System.Drawing.ColorTranslator.FromHtml("#C0C0C0")

Should do the job...

Hi Davidson
Try this out
cell2.BackColor = Drawing.ColorTranslator.FromHtml("#C3E4F9")
Hope this helps
