This is how windows displays that type of element.
There is a lot of legacy under the covers on a Mac and it would look different .

I'm making a windows application with C#. I'm using the color dialog box for the user to select a color. I'd like to store that color in a database, and be able to retrieve it later on, and be able to use that color in the user interface.

At least there is the color command:
color bg fg
where:

Example:
color 80
Gives a silver background with black text.

Edit don't draw your color....
Readability might suffer slightly.
My solution background (or apply the concept to Window and WindowText).
