Subject:      How to find out which CX color codes map to what colors?
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"

I'm trying to learn SAS graph.

My question is to how to find out what the colors that start with "cx" translate to.

For instance, in experimentation I have found out that:
cx000000 = black 

cx010000 = black

cx590000 = brown 

cxff0000 = red 



1.  Is there a list of the major cx characters somewhere?



2.  Is there some way to get what the cx color number is from knowing the RGB and hue numbers?  For instance, I can determine in MS Access that light blue is:

Hue=120, Sat=240, Lum=180, Red=128, Green=255, Blue=255  (MS access color 16777088)

Would there be some way to determine what cx color to use?
