>Anybody got experience with Colors? I have a database with colors as integers that I need to display the colors. The problem is they are RGB and not ARGB. When I use Color.FromArgb(int) I get a different color. If I try to break out the colors using color.A, color.R, color.G, and color.B I get values in the alpha part that I assume should be 255 if anything.

I'm assuming the data source is a single int, not an array of ints correct?

Just out of curiosity... try RGBx instead of xRGB.

Also if the data was created in c a byte array may have been used to create the int so the unused byte may not have been initialized and my contain garbage.

Also it may be stored as BGRx or xBGR see http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/javatips/jw-javatip43.html
