In the dUFLP, the form 'colorDlg.wfm' displays RGB values and dBase hex
values for many named 'colors', including BtnFace.

Hmmmh... there's a function for that in .net; so I assume that there also
should be one in the windows API.
Maybe you can search the WinAPI.

I guess that's what he wants, no?
To find out what actually _IS_ the ButtonFace.

User can set it to anything he/she likes anyway, and unfortunately I
have some colleagues liberately doing so.
