Question

I have to store colors in database.

How could I store a color in a best manner in the database field?, by color name or something else??

Answer 1

If its for a HTML Page, storing the #RRGGBB tag as a string is probably enough.

If its for .NET , it supports building a color from its ARGB Value

System.Drawing.Color c = System.Drawing.Color.FromArgb(int);  int x = c.ToArgb(); 

so you could just store that int.
