RGB Color Pallete Values

I needed to find the same color setting for the highlight colors in Word and Outlook because I wanted to fill some cells in Excel.

I found this website after much searching that laid it all out nicely and wanted to capture the info for later use.  http://www.tech-archive.net/Archive/Word/microsoft.public.word.drawing.graphics/2007-12/msg00053.html

The original 16 choices, shown in the 'Highlighter' tool (top to bottom, left to right) are

RGB Hex   RGB Decimal  Color Names
======== =========== ============
#FFFF00 255/255/000 Yellow*
#FF0000 255/000/000 Red*
#8B0000 139/000/000 Dark Red*

#00FF00 000/255/000 Bright Green(Lime)*
#00008B 000/000/139 Dark Blue(Navy)*
#808000 128/128/000 Dark Yellow(Olive)*

#00FFFF 000/255/255 Turquoise(Aqua)*
#008080 000/128/128 Teal*
808080 128/128/128 Gray-50%(Gray)*

#FF00FF 255/000/255 Pink(Fuschia)*
#008000 000/128/000 Green*

#0000FF 000/000/255 Blue*
#800080 128/000/128 Violet(Purple)*
#FFFFFF 255/255/255 Black

The 40 choices in the Font, line and fill color dialogs are (top to bottom left to right in the dialog) listed below. Where a color name appears in parentheses it is a web color name (not always the same as the Word tooltip color name. Word uses those parenthetical names internally in it's web page work for compatibility, as well as the asterisked standard names.
