Nicki - I thought about using that standard Microsoft color chooser, but it's nearly impossible to modify, and doesn't really do what I want. It's always scary to code in something that the OS has more control over than I do. I've always found it cumbersome to use. The block of standard colors is practically useless, and takes up a lot of space. The block of custom colors often doesn't remember colors I've chosen, and seldom puts them into the box I've selected. It might be useful if I could weld the right side of that dialog box onto a new left side of my on creation. But I still need to display little squares of color.
