By the way, going the other way, long to RGB

vColour = 8388736
vRed = vColour And &HFF
vGreen = vColour \ 256 And &HFF
vBlue = vColour \ 256 ^ 2 And &HFF

ActiveCell.Interior.Color = RGB(vRed, vGreen, vBlue)

myRange.interior.colorindex=35

or myRange.interior.color = 65535

or even myRange.interior.color=rgb(&H80,&h0,&h80)

Here is the algorithm for the latter
vRed = &H80
vGreen = &H0
vBlue = &H80

vColour = vBlue * 256 ^ 2 + vGreen * 256 + vRed

Thanks,

I learned about that and have been looking through it. I was
hoping
to
find some info that would a bit more descriptive. I have
figured
out
how
to
do some things, but others elude me. Like, how would I change
the
background (fill) color of a cell/range? I've tried 'BackColor'
but
i'm
not
getting anywhere. Also I need to figure out the algorythm to
create
a
RGB
long color value from the separate RED GREEN BLUE.

Thanks again,

Norm

Norman,

Do you mean the methods available to you in the Excel object
model?
If
so,
you should be able to see all of these by going into the
Object
Browser
in
Excel VBA.
