How does one determine the RGB format for the back color...

RGB(?,?,?)
 
The colour value is actually RGB, but in the reverse order. If you convert
any value back to Hex, you'll see that the first 2 digits are the Blue
value, the middle 2 digits are the Green value and the last 2 digits are the
Red value.

Therefore, the following will work:

Function Red(ColourValue As Long) As Long
Dim strHexColour As String

strHexColour = Right$("000000" & Hex(ColourValue), 6)
Red = CLng("&H" & Right$(strHexColour, 2))

End Function

Function Green(ColourValue As Long) As Long
Dim strHexColour As String

strHexColour = Right$("000000" & Hex(ColourValue), 6)
Green = CLng("&H" & Mid$(strHexColour, 3, 2))

End Function

Function Blue(ColourValue As Long) As Long
Dim strHexColour As String

strHexColour = Right$("000000" & Hex(ColourValue), 6)
Blue = CLng("&H" & Left$(strHexColour, 2))

End Function
