APPLIES TO

  • Microsoft Excel 2000 Standard Edition

SYMPTOMS

When you use the Color property to return the border color of a series in a Microsoft Excel 2000 line chart, Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications always returns the RGB value 0 (black) if the border color is set to Automatic.

For example, if the border color is automatic, the following code returns the RGB value 0 for the Color property of Series 1 in a line chart, even if the actual displayed color is not black:

ActiveChart.SeriesCollection(1).Border.Color
