On the Macintosh, there is a standard dialog for selecting colours commonly
known as the colour picker.  This is the one with the big colour wheel that
lets you mouse around and shows values for both HSV and RGB.

There is a similar dialog for Win3 in the Control Panel that appears
when you define custom colours.  It's the one with a big coloured 
square.  It also shows the HSV and RGB values as you mouse around.  

Does anyone know how to access this dialog?  
Can I use LoadLibrary and GetProcAddress to get to it?

Running exehdr reveals a number of entry points in control.exe.  What
other information do I need?

Is this a bad idea?
