 A colour question (Win 95 and VB4 Pro 32 bit)

How do I ensure that my application, when installed on the end user's
machine, will pick up and use his/her choice of colours that have been
previously selected through the control panel. I was hoping to find a
constant or some equally simple method but seem to be unable to locate
anything that may help.

Many thanks for any help that may be offered.

Regards.

Use system colour constants (for Americans, that's system color
constants). They are ones that begin with &H8. If you look in the object
browser, you should be able to locate some named constants you can
easily use in code.
