How to create a colorpicker like the one in wordpad -

Hi people,

Does one of you know how to create a "simple" colorpicker like the
one in Wordpad? The things i found on the internet are way too big and complicated. That would be overkill. The one like in wordpad would be perfect. I have a Rich TextBox on my form, it would be nice if a user could change the color of the "selected" text.


Hope someone can help..

Thanks,
Warad
