I €˜d like to change a line color depending on the Backcolor of a OptionButton
but when I ask :
Color1 = OptionButton1.BackColor

The result do not match to:
Range("AF16").Interior.ColorIndex = Color1

Does sameone knows how can I make it works?

Color is a long (RGB) value and ColorIndex is the index (position) of a
color in the workbook color table.

Try:

Range("AF16").Interior.Color = Color1

Note that if you try to set a cell interior color to one which is not in the
workbook color table then Excel will use the "closest" color from the table
instead.
