Hi Garry

OK thanks for this. I'm grateful again for your time and considerable
expertise

Glad to help!

As Claus said.., some colors may not work with the normal cell shade.
My hope was to keep in the zone of darker tones by increasing the RGB
factor by a fixed amount, so you might want to play with that!
