I need to use VBA code to change the color and the thickness of
trendlines in a chart I generated using VBA. For the life of me I
cannot generate working code to change these trendline properties.
Surely this can be done. If someone could help me out it would be
greatly appreciated.

Sub test()
Dim cht As Chart
Dim sr As Series
Dim tr As Trendline

Set cht = ActiveSheet.ChartObjects(1).Chart
Set sr = cht.SeriesCollection(1)
Set tr = sr.Trendlines(1)

tr.Border.ColorIndex = 3
tr.Border.LineStyle = xlDash 'xlContinuous
tr.Border.Weight = xlThick ' xlThin

End Sub

Formating the trendline's border is what you're looking for I believe:

Sub Test()
Dim cht As Chart
Set cht = ActiveSheet.ChartObjects(1).Chart
With cht.SeriesCollection(1).Trendlines(1).Border
.ColorIndex = 3
.Weight = xlThin
.LineStyle = xlContinuous
End With
End Sub
