Here's a simple one:

How do I convert VB's System Colors (vbWindowBackground, vbButtonFace) to
their RGB values? I know I read the solution somewhere, but I forgot.

Thanks in advanced,

I haven't tried this, but a routine like this using the API call to GetSysColor should work.

Sub SysColorToRGB(ByVal SysColor as OLE_COLOR, R as Long, G as Long, B as Long)
    Dim RGBColor as OLE_COLOR

    RGBColor = GetSysColor(SysColor And &HFF)

    R = RGBColor And 255
    G = (RGBColor And 65280) / 256
    B = (RGBColor And 16711680) / 65536
End Sub

Convert the number to hex triples

For some reason, Micsorost chose to describe red green blue as
green blue red.

The RBG mode is for example used in HTML to specify colors.

Hope this helps
