Adding ActiveX Colour Palette

[Deltaflyer]

I have been tasked to compile an ActiveX graph, (my first ActiveX project ever) and would like to be able to choose the colors shown on the graph.

It took me a couple of days to figure out how to pass all the graph variables but that is now done, thankfully!

I have also successfully added color properties, and i have it functioning on an RGB(r,g,b) entry at the moment. What i would like is to be able to select the colours, as is done on a normal control. (Y'know that small pallete window shown in the toolbox)

Does anybody know how to do this, or have any idea where i could find an example?

Thanks for any assistance, this is pretty much the final hurdle and it would be greatly appreciated. DeltaFlyer

FYI: here is the answer, for future reference...

Public Property Let BackColor(tColor As OLE_COLOR)
UserControl.BackColor = tColor
End Property

Public Property Get BackColor() As OLE_COLOR
BackColor = UserControl.BackColor
End Property

Do you want a CommonDialog control called with ShowColor?

Private Sub Command1_Click()
CommonDialog1.ShowColor
MsgBox CommonDialog1.Color
End Sub Let me know if this helps

You can look for an example at

They have plenty of active X controls with code. Thanks and Good Luck!
