I have some labels on a userform that I set the forecolor property to
&H80000011& (Disabled Text). I want to be able to change the forecolor
between "Disabled Text" and "Button Text" (and vice versa) with code. I know
I can use RGB values, but I was hoping to use the same colors that are listed
in the properties box, so it matches other labels on the form.
