Default trouble setting colors

I'd like to set the color of the datalabels for my series to be the
same as the series itself.

The following does not work. It would seem that the color codes used
by .interior.color of the series are different from those used for the
font of a selection of a datalabel.

Dim myChrt As Chart
Set myChrt = ActiveChart
Dim oSer As Series
Dim dlabel As DataLabel
Dim oSerColor As String

For Each oSer In myChrt.SeriesCollection

oSerColor = oSer.Interior.Color

oSer.HasDataLabels = True
For Each dlabel In oSer.DataLabels
dlabel.Select
Selection.Font.Color = oSerColor
Next

Next


I'm using office 2007 btw.

Thanks,
Charles
