I believe you are using xl2007, which I know very little about, but if you
could state the error message content, it would help to analyze the problem.

Shouldn't the color be defined in RGB

ActiveSheet.Shapes"TESTBOX").TextFrame2.TextRange _
.Format.Bullet.Font.Color = RGB(255, 0, 0)

I want to change the color of bullets in a textbox (shape) in XL 2007, but
keep getting errors. this is what I have tried:

ActiveSheet.Shapes("TESTBOX").TextFrame2.TextRange .ParagraphFormat.Bullet.Font.Color = 255

similarly, when I try to change the font name, character, or other
attributes of the bullet, this works just fine.
