Convert THEMEGUARD Colors in RGB

[kippi]

Hello*,

I access Visio Shape colors in C++ as follows:

m_VCell.AttachDispatch(m_VShape1.GetCellsSRC(VISSECTIONOBJECT,
VISROWFILL, VISFILLFOREGND));
CString sColorNew = m_VCell.GetFormula();

(VISSECTIONOBJECT, VISROWFILL, VISFILLFOREGND are #define values.)

According to Visio Version (2003 - 2010) I get as sColorNew either
the RGB(...) value or something as "THEMEGUARD(THEME("AccentColor2");
24)".

How can I convert THEMEGUARD(...) in RGB(...) ?

Thanks for any hint!
