When you have a 32-bit color value, you can convert it to a grey-scale - that is, you can determine how it would appear on a monochromatic display (more or less) using the following function:

Click here to copy the following block
Function GetGreyScale(ByVal lColor As Long)
  lColor = 0.33 * (lColor Mod 256) + 0.59 * ((lColor \ 256) Mod 256) + 0.11 * _
    ((lColor \ 65536) Mod 256)
  GetGreyScale = RGB(lColor, lColor, lColor)
End Function
