Default How do I name an autoshape so that I can refer to it in a macro?

One way. Select the shape and look in the NAME box to the left of the
formula box. Change the name there.

I'm trying to create a macro that changes the color of different
autoshapes
depending on the values of certain cells. Each autoshape would change,
depending on the value of a different cell. So, I need to refer to each
autoshape separately. When I recorded the macro, it refers to "Rectangle
220" for every rectangle, so when I run it, it only changes the first
rectangle to the correct color.
