Just select a color object, press MB3 and select 'Edit...' and the Windows edit color dialog comes up which will include the RGB values as shown in the attached image.

thanks John,
ok, thats (only) one more click away compared to older Nx versions. Ok no more comments. I 'll pass it to the long term users ( colleagues).
 
... oh, stopp John,
why does the Nx6 ask for an cdf file // everytime//
I select a color ->MB3 edit ???
It's not as you told above.....
 
From the looks of the image you sent, it appears that you are trying use an invalid or obsolete cdf file. Were you editing an old part file or was it a new one?
