You can order some documentation & code (the Windows Developer's Notes) that has code for a % complete bar (for use in software installation programs). However I don't think it includes any color specification software. I finally decided to bite the bullet and allow users to select colors for objects from a fixed pallette. Maybe I'll bite the bullet further and let them change the RGB values for the colors in the pallette... Not too difficult to write - but the color selection problem is solved so well in the Control Panel that it's a shame it can't be used for 3rd party appls too! Terrell
