Default Scatter Plot Color

I want a specific color for a chart I created, but the data series keeps
changing to a neon geen. I've changed the color several times and it always
shows up neon green. Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks

Please tell us the steps you followed to change the data series color.
Does this happen in a new workbook? - I am wondering if there is a macro
playing games with you!
Want to send me the file? - to my private email, not the newsgroup

Bernard,

All I did was right click on the data series, selected Format Data Series,
and changed the color. The weird thing is this only seems to happen on one
computer, and when you save the file it goes back to the right color. If you
then select any cell in the workbook, the color changes back to neon green.
All our computers, operating systems, and versions of excel are the exact
same. Any ideas?

Thanks
