Hello Excel Experts

I'm using 2003.

Here's the thing: I'm desiging a powerpoint template for a client and have
advised him to use excel for all his charting as MSGraph is so completely
hopeless. I know I can change chart colours through tools-options-colour
and that I can then use that file to update charts in any other xls. I also
know I can create user-defined charts with the fonts, background etc I want
and share those. Thing is I don't know *exactly* what chart types my client
may want to use (and, bless, neither does he at the mo).

So, my question is: is there any way to set fonts & background defaults for
all new charts without using the user-defined charts?

One solution seems to be to define one chart type, set it as default, tell
him to use f11 and then chage chart type as I think this reatins
backgrounds/fonts etc. Is that right? And is it the only way?

Thank you for your time :-)

Lucy
