The color I'm looking for is not one that can be produced purely (i.e. without  
dithering) on a 16Bit display so you can't just use the mag glass.  Look  
closely and see that there is more than one color in their blue.  Take the  
51,68,136 value and look at it in TwoBitGray (dwrite Edit NXWindowDepthLimit  
TwoBitGray).  It doesn't show up as pure NX_DKGRAY.  

You can experiment and get several values that are close but none that seem to  
match perfectly.  I was hoping some one actually knew what the color was.  

I ended up using is 65,79,169.  It's a little lighter but will have to do.

Thanks Anyway,

tjb
