    Charts - series colours

    Greetings,
    As part of something I'm working on, I'm trying to get two curves on a graph to have the same colour. Here's the code I'm trying to use:

    However, it doesn't like that. Any suggestions?

    In what way does it not like it? do you get an error message?

    perhaps you meant something like

    I was getting an error message - I've tried a variety of things. The ones which don't come up with an error message just go white.
    Same thing occurred with yours - the second series (so SerTo in yours) became white.
    I did debug.print on the Format.Line.ForeColor.SchemeColor for the first series and it just comes up with "9" for all of them, despite them being different colours. Could this be something to do with the fact that they're set as "automatic" technically, instead of a specific colour?
    I did have some minor success by setting a random R,G & B value with each iteration and applying it to both series but it looks really aesthetically displeasing when excel's "automatic" colours aren't used...
