  Value	Description
  0	Black
  1	Blue
  2	Green
  3	Cyan
  4	Red
  5	Magenta
  6	Yellow
  7	White
  8	Gray

• The RGB function allows much more flexibility than the QBColor function, which is a remnant of the older QBasic programming language.

• Visual Basic now contains a wide range of intrinsic color constants that can be used to assign colors directly to the color properties of objects. These colors are members of the System.Drawing.Color structure.
