Are there no color constants in Excel VBA for fonts, interior shading,
etc., other than the usual None and Auto? I don't see a list in the
Help, and I've tried all the usual xl- and vb- prefixed combinations
(separating prefix from color name with Color, ColorIndex, or nothing).
Does Excel not have the semi-English constants like these in Word:
Selection.Font.Color = wdColorDarkBlue
Selection.Font.ColorIndex = wdDarkBlue
Selection.Cells(1).Shading.BackgroundPatternColor = wdColorDarkBlue
Selection.Cells(1).Shading.BackgroundPatternColorI ndex = wdDarkBlue
I was sure I'd seen them someplace but noooooo.....?
TIA
