To use the standard - os/2 color-palettes:
Use the rexxutil function sysopenobeject
for solid-colors:
rc = SysOpenObject('<WP_LORESCLRPAL>','DEFAULT','TRUE')
for mixed-colors:
rc = SysOpenObject('<WP_HIRESCLRPAL>','DEFAULT','TRUE')
Now the user of your program can drag and drop colors from palette to an item of your application.
To get the colors use
backcol=VpItem(window,id,'GETBACKCOLORRGB')
forecol=VpItem(window,id,'GETFORECOLORRGB')
