In all Microsoft products (Excel, Word, Graph, PowerPoint) the color
picker has a set of 40 colors. Why is it that if you use the Common
Controls Color Dialog Box, that there is a different set of colors. Not
only that, is it possible to synchronize the two OR is there any
possibly to define the initial colors in the CCCDB.

This problem arises from my desire to have a user choose colors on an
Access form. These colors will be used to create charts in PowerPoint.
As I have an initial set of colours that color SHOULD be displayed when
the user clicks the change-color button. This does not work as some of
my default colors (e.g. 6697881 Plum) is not present on the CCCDB.

Also is there any way to extract the NAMES of the colors. This is not
really important, just curious.

HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELP
