I forgot about 2007 !
Slightly strange that Dark Red in Excel 2007 is RGB(192,0,0) whereas in previous versions it is RGB(128,0,0) Regards, Peter T "baconcow" wrote in message ... Heh, I know. I said Maroon for my reference. The actual name of the colour that I chose was "Dark Red". The other colours I chose were "Green" and "Dark Blue, Text 2". I just didn't know how to reference the colour without using the RGB statement. Yeah, to me, it was similar to maroon. But, yeah, it is a little darker. Do you know how to change the colour of the lines (found in Format Data Series)? I can't figure this one out. In Microsoft Office 2007 (192, 0, 0) exists at the far left of the 10 "Standard Colors". But, you're right, it does not exist in their pallet of 56 default theme colours. Thanks for the help! "Peter T" wrote: This is the maroon chosen from their default colour pallet. There is no such named colour, neither does RGB(192,0,0) exist in the default colour palette of 56 colours. When you apply some RGB colour value the nearest colour that already exists in the palette will be applied. Or rather ColorIindex(X) is applied where X is the index of the nearest matched palette colour. If your palette is uncustomized I would expect colorindex(3), RGB(255,0,0,0), Red to be applied with your example. Regards, Peter T |
