Default looping at regular interval


I am trying to create a "marquee" effect by looping through 3 fill
effects.

It does what I'm going after, but only performs the fill effects once,
then stops. I am trying to get it to repeat from the beginning after
the 3rd fill effect.


Code:
--------------------
Dim iCount As Integer
Sub ColorChange()
Dim dTime As Date
dTime = Now
Application.OnTime dTime + TimeValue("00:00:01"), "ColorChange"
iCount = iCount + 1
If iCount = 1 Then
ActiveSheet.Shapes("Group 1").Fill.ForeColor.SchemeColor = 13
ActiveSheet.Shapes("Group 2").Fill.ForeColor.SchemeColor = 8
ActiveSheet.Shapes("Group 3").Fill.ForeColor.SchemeColor = 8
End If
If iCount = 2 Then
ActiveSheet.Shapes("Group 1").Fill.ForeColor.SchemeColor = 8
ActiveSheet.Shapes("Group 2").Fill.ForeColor.SchemeColor = 13
ActiveSheet.Shapes("Group 3").Fill.ForeColor.SchemeColor = 8
End If
If iCount = 3 Then
ActiveSheet.Shapes("Group 1").Fill.ForeColor.SchemeColor = 8
ActiveSheet.Shapes("Group 2").Fill.ForeColor.SchemeColor = 8
ActiveSheet.Shapes("Group 3").Fill.ForeColor.SchemeColor = 13
End If
If iCount = 3 Then
iCount = 0
Application.OnTime dTime + TimeValue("00:00:01"), "ColorChange", , False
End If
End Sub
--------------------


Thank you in advance
