Help with MS Graph
 

Hi,
I am trying to do something quite simple yet I can't seem to figure
out how. I am trying to programmatically change the background of the
tag of one of the data points on the graph. For example I have a bar
chart (in PowerPoint) with number of apples, oranges and lemons and I
want to highlight Oranges.

Any help would be soooo appreciated.

Thanks

I doubt that Excel users use MS Graph. They do their charts with Excel. But I
could be wrong.

Myrna's right, of course. I use Excel for all of my charts, even the
charts that ultimately reside in Word or PowerPoint. But if you want to
do it manually, it's probably the same technique in either case.

Perhaps first you could clarify what chart element you mean by "tag"?

I am using a realy complex macro and the graph is created in
PowerPoint it would be complicated to explain but it's preaty much
imposible at this point to create the graphs in Excel. Now I am stuck
with PowerPoint files and I must change the forecolor of the object
that contains the name of the column. I realy hope someone knows how
to do that. If not I have a serious problem :-)
