I've been give, by the client, a color to be ued as a form header background
(and a second for the menu form text). They aren't recognized by access...

The RGB numbers are standard stuff, the #___ is something that the website
guy uses(?)

Is there a way to translate them to something Access understands?

the colors are:
#E0E5BD
(R-224 G-229 B-189)

#F75228
(R-247 G-082 B-040)

thanks in advance,
mark

There's a built-in RGB function.

From the Help file:

Returns a Long whole number representing an RGB color value.

Syntax

RGB(red, green, blue)

Mark,
Try the RGB function...
= RGB(224,229,189)
