The first three lines of code below declares an IColor variable and sets it to a new RGBColor object. Then the Visual Basic RGB function is used to set the RGB property to get a mixed color.

[Visual Basic 6.0]
  Dim myColor As IColor
  Set myColor =  New RGBColor
  myColor.RGB = RGB(255,255,155)

This could also be accomplished using the Red, Green, and Blue properties on the IRGBColor interface

  Dim myColor As IRGBColor
  Set myColor = New RGBColor
  myColor.Red = 255
  myColor.Blue = 255
  myColor.Green = 15

Aside from the RGBColor object, you can set an IColor to use any of the other color CoClasses.

  'Set myColor = New HSVColor
  'Set myColor = New HLSColor
  'Set myColor = New CMYKColor
  'Set myColor = New GrayColor

If you need to convert an IColor Object to an OLE Color (to use in your UI components)

  MyControl.backGroundColor = myColor.RGB
