Thanks for the advice. I downloaded the newer version (mine was from
2004), but the problem still remains. I still have to use the
colorindex parameter in order to get everything to work, but I believe
I understand the problem (and it's not too hard of a fix).

I'd get the latest version of FSC_COLOR. No one would
read the directions on the version you are using, so I
went the Microsoft route and try to do all the thinking
for you in the latest versions. :-)

Say what!? You may have downloaded the newer version, but
I don't think you are using it. In your test program, using
the latest version of FSC_COLOR the indices of the black, red,
and green indices should be 173, 232, and 197, respectively.

Mine works perfectly, for what it is worth. :-)

Cheers,

David
