Hi,
 I debugged the problem to the best of my abilities and I have the
 following results:
1. The contents of "w32-color-map" and return value of
'w32-default-color-map are different.
2. "w32-color-map" does not have the complete list from
'w32-default-color-map

Corrupted Contents of "w32-color-map"
extracted using:
(defun find-color ()
  (interactive)
  (setq dd w32-color-map)
  (while dd
    (if (or (string= "darkblue" (downcase (car (car dd))))
	    (string= "dark blue" (downcase (car (car dd)))))
	(message "Found blue"))
    (message "%s" (downcase (car (car dd))))
    (setq dd (cdr dd))))

Solution:
In my _emacs file, I added the following entry:
(setq w32-color-map (w32-default-color-map))

I will try to find the real problem. Lot of colors are missing!!

with regards,
