HTML Color

I found this code on the forum and it's working great, but I can't really understand its functionality. This code converts Color values as used by VB to HTML Colors (certain kind of Hexadecimal colors). Does somebody have a code that does the opposite; convert HTML Colors to VB understandable code?

Thx :)

[edit]o ****, posted it in Chit Chat... can a mod kick this to the VB General Questions?[/edit]
VB Code:
Public Function ColorHTML(Number As Long) As String
Dim MyString As String, MyNum As Long, MyCalc As Long, MyRemainder As Long, X As Integer
MyRemainder = Number
    MyString = ""
    For X = 2 To 0 Step -1
        MyCalc = MyRemainder \ 256 ^ X
        MyString = Format$(Hex(MyCalc), "00") & MyString
        MyRemainder = MyRemainder - MyCalc * 256 ^ X
    Next
    txtColor.Text = MyString
End Function

Hey, I'm not a yank! I'm Dutch and I know perfectly well the difference between British and American English. I've chosen the American word for colour because it's internationally accepted.

Oh, and since you give yourself the privilege of guessing my form of education, I am absolutely not uneducated; I've just finished grammar school... :rolleyes:
