I've been using CC for a few years now, with no problems.  Suddenly however, I noticed that CC will no longer display the Hexidecimal code. Instead, I see some rather bizaare looking numbers such as: &H171cbb  rather than the "#810000" that it should be displaying. I've looked all over but see nothing amiss. 

Any help would be appreciated.

Right click in the CC wiindow and make sure you are in HTML Hex mode.  There are keyboard shortcuts to change modes so this might have happened accidentally.

Jay, that did the trick, thanks so much.  I had tried that previously (Right Clicking in the window) but did not notice or find the Hex option. This time, I did. Thanks, I use this program often and it was a hassle having to look up the RGB numbers online to find the Hex equivalent.  I appreciate the response.  Frank
