Default How to change the color of all series in an excel chart in one go.

In Excel 2000
I have a chart (XY) with a large number of series. Excel assigns different
colours to each series. I would like to have the same colour for all series
and then change a few to highlight them. Do I have to change them all one by
one or can I have excel make a chart where the series all have the same
colour (preferably chosen by me)?

Marielle -

Format one series the way you'd like them all to look. Select another series, and
press the F4 key to repeat, Select another and press F4 again, and continue until
you've changed them all.
