Default Setting Background Color RGB (Always goes to closest index color)

You must store the setting for every used cell in the workbook. the space
required to store the index number is significantly smaller than the space
required for an rgb color.

Thanks Tom for the explanation. I have to admit thats pretty stupid
having it limited though. I'm sure there a good reason behind it?
