How do I select all pixels that match an exact color value in Adobe Photoshop?

Question

Is there any way to select _all_ pixels on the current layer that match a specific color value ***exactly***? My first instinct is `Select > Color Range...`, but I cannot determine how to input a specific pixel color *by value*, without knowing ahead of time the location of a pixel of that color. The goal being to select pixels that match that specific color, or none if no pixels have that color.

You might want to try to select the color then use the Similar command under the Select menu BUT lower the tolerance dramatically to as low as necessary.
