Hi widman,

Is there any way to type the 6 letter color code into Excel for a
background?


If you mean the RGB value, use menu Tools -- Options -- Color tab --
Modify -- Custom

If you want to enter the HSL color value, then you should download my
'Colour Palette Tool' from http://www.edferrero.com/charting.aspx

I was hoping to be able to type in colors such as DDEEEE, so I could make
colors match my web site, as NOF alows.

Hi widman,

The web colors you use are RGB values in hex
So DDEEEE is
Red DD = 221
Green EE = 238
Blue EE = 238

So go to Options and create a custom color with RGB values of 221, 238, 238

Try http://www.visibone.com/colorlab/ for more info on web colors
