Hi Again,

OK, I've tried Rick's, but couldn't get it to fire. I haven't tried
Patrick's yet, but will.

I initially wondered if I had the right color, which is Gray-25%. I
then went to http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/excel/colors.htm. This
webpage states, "Of the descriptive color names only those for index
numbers 1 - 8 can be used in coding." Therefore, it appears that the
long color name, 12632256, will need to be used.
