    Change default pie chart colors in recorded macro 2010

    Hi I am working on a project where I am virtually almost finished except for a minor change with the pie chart. I am analyzing some data and recorded a macro to do this and also the pie chart for visualization. However, I do not like the color of the default pie chart colors and would like to customize it. How could I change this within the macro I have recorded? I have attached my code below and any help would much appreciated. Please let me know if you have any questions or need clarifications.

    Your profile says xl2003 but that code is not for xl2003 charts. What version are you actually using?

    Did you try recording macro when changing the colour of the pie chart slices?
    Cheers

    Hi Andy, appreciate you replying. Im currently using Excel 2010. Im somewhat of a newbie and still learning macros as is hahhaa. The default colors on the pie charts are random and not exactly what I wanted. I would like to know if there is a way I could customize the colors and run a macro where its consistent with the labels I have. If theres a way to do that, that would be awesome. Thanks and appreciate your time.
