Yep. If you want to convert to individual colors:
---
Public Function RedFromRGB(ByVal RGB As Long) As Integer
RedFromRGB = &HFF& And RGB
End Function
Public Function GreenFromRGB(ByVal RGB As Long) As Integer
GreenFromRGB = (&HFF00& And RGB) \ 256
End Function
Public Function BlueFromRGB(ByVal RGB As Long) As Integer
BlueFromRGB = (&HFF0000 And RGB) \ 65536
End Function
---
You *can* use it directly if you reverse the order of the RGB elements.
Private Sub Form_Load()
Dim strHTMLColor As String, strVBColour As String
strHTMLColor = "#C94996"
strVBColour = "&H" & Mid$(strHTMLColor, 6, 2) & Mid$(strHTMLColor, 4, 2) & Mid$(strHTMLColor, 2, 2)
Me.BackColor = CLng(strVBColour)
End Sub
