worked out... but everybody gets the messages you send to the list, so you only
need to send them once (and we all saw Tom's message already, since it was also
sent to the list).</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hello.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>How can I get an highlighted version of a
color.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>That is, how can I find the code of a color
wich is a lighter version of another color.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I tryed to do this myself but I need, for
instance, to know how to get a number from a string representing an
hexadecimal number.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I could then add some value to RGB components
and use RGB(newred, newgreen, newblue) to get that color.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I found Hex function that returns a string
representing the hexadecimal convertion of a number.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Is there an inverse function to turn a string
into a number?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Something like afunc("FF") that returns
255.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Thanks</FONT></DIV>
