Hi.

I need to apply the same color to the bars in a graph (via VBA),
wether the graph has 3 bars or 7 bars.

The problem that i face is that when the point (bar) doens´t exists
excel gives back an error:
ActiveChart.SeriesCollection(1).Points(3).Select in case of poínt 3
dont exists.

Is there a way to teste if the point exists, to only apply the
programing in that case?

Thanks a lot!!!

Jorge

Would something like:

ActiveChart.SeriesCollection(1).Points.Interior.Co lorIndex = 3

Not work?

Hi.
every bar has is how color. I can make every one with the same color.

Hi,

You can use the Count property to tell you how many points a series has.

ActiveChart.SeriesCollection(1).Points.Count

The code will run more smoothly if instead of using

ActiveChart.SeriesCollection(1).Points(3).Select
Selection.Interior.Blah

you use

ActiveChart.SeriesCollection(1).Points(3).Interior .Blah
