Show color-picker for users

[Webmaster]

Hi everyone,

Being in design-mode of a form, one can choose
colors (f.e. form-background-color) by picking it
from a color-palette.

Does anybody know a way to give a user the possibility
to choose a color within a form by that picker and
store the number of the color in a table-field.
The picker is available in almost every MS-Programm,
so I suppose it is a function in a common DLL.

Any help appreciated in advance

Michael

There's an API call for this.
