[RESOLVED] Converting Text to a Long Value

[Mark Gambo]

I would like to know if it is possible to convert the following strings types into
a long type:

vbRed convert to 255
vbBlue convert 16711680
vbGreen convert 65280
vbYellow convert 65535

I tried but it converts the vbRed value to 118:

Dim lngTest as Long
lngtest = CLng(Asc("vbRed"))

Thanks!
