Color Dialog

[Kerry]

Hi all,

I want to have a color picker on a form. I tried the Common Dialog
Control, and it worked for most users, but some have problems. I
heard that using the ChooseColorAPI might be less buggy, so I am
trying that. I am not certain how to distinguish between the user
choosing a color of black, and the user clicking cancel. Can anyone
help?

From the docs about ChooseColor: If the user cancels or closes the
Color dialog box or an error occurs, the return value is zero.

Hi Tom,

Thanks, but I already knew that. The problem is when the user chooses
the color black, the return value is also 0. How can I distinguish
between the user clicking cancel, and the user choosing a color of
black?
