Jon - Thank you.

These are the colors being used...

Dark Blue = 41
Dark Green = 4
White = -4142
Light Yellow = 6
Dark Red = 3

You're correct...the -4142 is th normal color of an Excel Cell, which
happens to look like )is technically ?) white.

-4142 is not white, it's default. Which color index values are applied to
the cells in your range? Which are applied to the series?
