Default need to set a cell background color which is not within the Excel colorindex range

Is there a way to set the background color of a cell in another way than the
interior.colorindex property ? I need to set a very light red color, and the
reds that Exel exposes within the colorindex range are too dark for this.
I've tried to change the background color outside from a VB app with
interior.color=....colornr but that results in Excel in other colors than VB
normally does when using the same color numbers.
