Default change series or line color in excel 2007 vba

Thanks!! That worked. One more question. Do you happen to know why the
border object does not show up when using intellisense in the VBA window of
Excel 2007? That makes it seem as though the border object has been removed
from the 2007 object model.

This works:

objSeries.Border.Color = RGB(255, 127, 0)

I've done this hundreds of times in 2003, but in 2007 I'm hitting some
snags.
I think it has to do with the chart styles found in excel 2007. I'm
trying
to change the color of a series in my line graph using the following code:

Set ch = Worksheets("Chart").ChartObjects(1)
Set objSeries = ch.Chart.SeriesCollection(1)

objSeries.Format.Line.ForeColor.RGB = RGB(255, 127, 0)

But, this isn't working at all. Nothing is happening to the line. I'm
able
to do other things to the series, such as change the marker style, the
marker
color, the line style, but not the line color.

Any ideas???
