Default Applying Colours

Hi,

I have selected a colour from a cell and would like to use that colour for a
shape, however the colour is not the same- am I applying the colour in the
wrong format?


Retrieving the colour via:

SelectedColour = Range("Time_Colour").Interior.ColorIndex

And applying the color via:

Selection.ShapeRange.Fill.ForeColor.SchemeColor =
SelectedColour
Selection.ShapeRange.Fill.Visible = msoTrue
Selection.ShapeRange.Fill.Solid
Selection.ShapeRange.Line.ForeColor.SchemeColor =
SelectedColour
Selection.ShapeRange.Line.Visible = msoTrue

Thanks!
