Gene, I don't know the answer to your question but the following may help.

1. Click in the Chart / Chart Tools / Design contextual tab / Chart Styles

In here these is a whole variety of different colours to choose from.

2. The other thing that you might consider is Page Layout / Themes group /
click in the Colors drop down and choose what you want from here.

You can also set up your own Theme Colors in here by clicking:-

Create New Theme Colors . . .

3. Finally you might like to consider Page Layout / Themes group / click on
the drop down arrow beneath the word Themes and then select a Theme of your
choice. This will affect the colours in the Chart.

If my comments have helped please hit Yes.

Thanks.
