Color code help

Crystal Reports 9

Can someone explain how the color codes in Crystal work? I know crRed and 255 are equivilent. What kind of number sytem is this and how would I find out the codes for other colors?

I would concentrate on the two common methods Crystal allows for:

CRRED
or
rgb(255,0,0) which uses standard RGB

If you go in to any object that you can colorize and select the drop down for the colors you'll see "more", within more, you can select a color, and note that it shows the RGB representation as well.

Oh, I didn't know we could use RGB(). Thanks that's helpful. What exactly is 255 and for crGreen I know you can use 32768. What kind of system is that do you know?
