"pinning" a format to a data series
 
I have seven pilot facilities I report on every month. I'd like their data
to appear the same color in every chart I make, without having to manually
change it each time. Is there a way to attach a color to a data series,
across charts and workbooks and everything? It seems a lot of people could
benefit from this function.
Thanks.

"pinning" a format to a data series
 
I have posted some code that can format a series based on series name,
regardless of the order of series in a chart. I have placed the code and
the formatting in the same workbook as the chart being formatted, but
these could exist in a central workbook, and act on any other workbook
you may have.
