Default "Old" graphics in a chart

Hi,
I want to print my chart in black and white, so I was looking for the "old"
stripes, dots, and rulers I could put into my Chart so it would be
understandeble when I print it in B&W.
Any ideas?

Excel 2007 no longer has these patterns. In earlier versions they are found
by double clicking on the chart feature, selecting the Patterns tab, and
under Area click on the Fill Effects button. Now choose the Pattern tab.
Keep in mind that these will not show up too well on modern printers, since
the patterns of pixels comprising the patterns is shrunk to the pixel
spacing of the printer.
