Hi Everyone.

Sorry if this is getting posted twice. I am trying to format colors
of the area table. Below is the code for the entire setup and I am
running multiple charts.

The code below is trying to set collection using an Enum and it is
failing.

'ActiveChart.SeriesCollection(1).Points(1).Select
'With Selection.Interior
' .ColorIndex.CustomerColors = PaleOrange
'End With

Any help is appreciated

Full code below
