I have several pivot charts and chart worksheets in my workbook. Additionally, I have several parameters setup where the data series will change based on the criteria selected.

How do I create a macro, where no matter what the criteria is set that the color format for each specific data series in all charts and worksheets.

Ideally, I would have the color selection pulling data from a worksheet table.

Thank you for your help in advance. This is really bothering me.


Example:

<table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="652"><col style="mso-width-source:userset;mso-width-alt:8411;width:173pt" width="230"> <col
