color conversion
in [Visual Basic]

From: Jim Y on 29 Sep 2006 22:36 VB6 uses hexadecimals to define color of forms and text. Is there a program or some way that I can obtain the following for these 4 colors? Light Blue = &H00FFFFC0& Light Yellow = &H00C0FFFF& Light Red = &H00C0C0FF& Light Green = &H00C0FFC0& I need the Hue, Sat, Lum, Red, Green and Blue numerical values of each color. I am creating some small graphics and want to color match the background when the graphic is placed on an Image Control. Consider the graphic to be a silver oval in a rectangle. Unfortunately, I cannot make the background transparent with the software that I am using. I would prefer a method that will permit me to use any color in the future. Thank you, Jim Y

Otherwise, you can specify any color in vb with its RGB values, like this.. Picture1.backcolor=RGB(120, 28, 255) Of course, you have to find the RGB values using some external application.

Not sure about Hue, Sat and Lum, but Red, Green and Blue solutions abound. Here is one... Red = ColorValue And &HFF& Green = (ColorValue And &HFF00&) \ &H100& Blue = (ColorValue And &HFF0000) \ &H10000 For example, use &H00FFFFC0& for the ColorValue for your light blue color. Rick

That is my last resort. I want to know if there is a way to convert the hexadecimal to the RGB values. Thank you, Jim Y
