Defining colors

[James Intriligator]

Hi, I think you just need to use a variant of the CColor command.
But, as far as using this approach in a bracket-situation (e.g.
"[MyColor]"), this probably will not work... You might need some inline code
instead.
  One thing you could try (which I have not tried yet, but might work) is to
define a const that includes the CColor command in it... Strange thought,
but it might work.

 Anyway, below are some snippets of ways CColor is used.
  Good Luck,  james

=========================
Set cnvs = Display.Canvas
cnvs.FillColor=CColor("black") 
Cnvs.PenColor = CColor("255,0,0")
=========================
SlideText.ForeColor = Ccolor(c.GetAttrib("TheFrameColor"))
=========================
Public Sub SetPenColorToGray(TheCanvas As Canvas, TheLevelGray as String)
Dim ColorThing as String

ColorThing = TheLevelGray  & "," & TheLevelGray  & "," TheLevelGray
TheCanvas.PenColor = CColor(ColorThing)
End Sub
