Default two colours in the plot are of a chart

Dear all

There is adiagram with values of a stock
And there are values before 2003 and after 2003

There is possibility in the plot area the colour to be double?
For example in the area of values befor 2003 to be yellow and after 2003 to
be green?

Thanks in advance

You could fake it with another series, either a column or a stacked area, on
the same chart:

Hi,

A variation on this should allow you to colour the plot area.
