retireve hexadecimal from colordialog?

[justplainsoccer]

how might i go about retrieving a hexadecimal number (#0000FF) from a color dialog. i got the dialog to open but i cant figure out what to use for hexa.

The Color struct has a method, ToArgb. The ColorDialog returns a Color object. Which is the color the user selected. Just convert that int to hex using ToArgb().ToString("x") and you should be good

thanks, works great. but it appears to have a leading "ff" on it

remember...... it's returning red, green, blue AND ALPHA (not in that order though)
