Default macro for pivot table

Hi all.

I have the following macro that i recorded. (turns one bar green, one
yellow)
It changes the color for my pivot chart to the colors i want.
Instead of this long macro, I need one that says:

For every odd number bar in my pivot chart, make it green.
Every even number bar in my pivot chart, make it yellow.


This way, when I add new bars for the next months, I wont have to
re-record a new macro for each bar in my chart.


thanx
