Is there a VBA method to change the outline and vertices colors in a polyline?

As far as I know Excel does not support a "true" polyline directly, although you can build one by grouping individual line segments.

This code will allow you to work with those individual segments:

Code:
Sub WorkWithGroupedShapes()

    Dim go
    Dim shp As Shape
    Dim aryShapes As Variant
    
    If TypeName(Selection) = "GroupObject" Then
        Set go = Selection  'GroupObject (Stop & explore with Locals window)
        For Each shp In ActiveSheet.Shapes(Selection.Name).GroupItems
            Debug.Print shp.Name, shp.Type  'see MsoShapeType Enumeration in VBA Help
        Next
    End If
End Sub
