color question

[kaijanm]

How do I set the color of something on the backend when all I know is the Hex Code? The color is #7076B5.

I can see tblrw1.BackColor = Color.?

options I can see are fromName, fromArgb, fromknownColor. I think that fromArgb is the closest to what I want but I'm not sure.

Thanks in Advance!

I should clarify. I was able to convert the numbers so that I could use the RGB numbers, but I am hoping to find out if there is a way to use the hex numbers. It would be nice to not have to do the conversion since I'm used to thinking of it in Hex.

Thanks!

You can indeed use hex values when assigning colors.

Instead of using tblrw1.BackColor = Color.?

Use

tblrw1.BackColor = <hex value>
