CCD photometry of standard areas of the seven-color Strömvil photometric system in some open and globular clusters is described. The primary standards are being measured with a two-channel photoelectric photometer on the 1.5 meter telescope on Mt. Lemmon. CCD photometry of standard areas is in progress with the Vatican Advanced Technology Telescope on Mt. Graham and with the CASLEO 2.1 m telescope in Argentina. Two additional Strömvil projects are described.
