So,
Because if theres anything I know about Access... its that the simplest most trivial task requires a deep dive into Win API because
MS couldn't write libraries that the other Applications in VBA could all share.
(A toddler could call the Excel RGB picker.....) I digress
Does anyone know of an RGB Color picker that....
1.) Suppoted on x64
2.) Is actually written well (i.e. single function opens dialog and returns RGB OLE long when closed)
3.) supports every color
4.) Free
Tried...............
1.)
Not free, demo works very well.

2.)
Nice, sweet, and short code. Doesn't work. Hex value returned is incorrect
and the code has almost no explanation how its supposed to work.
(it passes the selection of the picker to variable lngColor)
Good attempt. - maybe a x64 issue.

3.)
Code has compile error on x64 - fails in ShowColorDialog at
Code:
.lpCustColors = VarPtr(aColorRef(0))
Tried messing around with Long/LongPtr, not sure.

4.) Custom form solution - cool but doesnt support all colors,
plus i'd rather just stick to native picker.
