Color Picker from flash UI components set 4

Hi, I am using the color picker from flash UI components set 4. All is well except when I use the getValue() command for the color picker it returns the decimal form of the color and I would like to obtain the hexadecimal instead. The text box of the color picker outputs the color in hex, but I can’t seem to obtain the text field output. Does anyone know how to do this?

Thanks,
