What version of Excel are you using?
I had no trouble using Excel 2003, having created a quick flow chart using
autoshapes (Drawing toolbar), then Format Autoshape.

I made a flow chart in Excel yesterday. You can color the connector lines
and the font. But it won't let you do a fill color. How do I do a fill
color? I need to make the chart with 8 colors...each color is assigned to
a
person who will be doing the task. hope this makes sense

thanks
