I'm trying to change the color of an Autoshape I've drawn on a spreadsheet
base on the value of a given cell. Can anybody help me?

hi Jmtricker

how about something like this:

activesheet.shapes("yourshape").color = RGB(Cell1,Cell2,Cell3)

the name and the correct syntax for the shape i would lookup
with recording a macro and then putting it together.
Although when you record a macro, excel always uses select,
you can write it without the select.

If there is any problem you can also post the code the recorded
Macro and we can have a look at it.

Slight correction - the syntax is:

ActiveSheet.Shapes("yourshape").Fill.ForeColor.RGB = RGB(Cell1, Cell2,
Cell3)
