Is there a way for VBA to apply background color to Chart series. be it Pie or bar or any other chart?
Below code only work for bar charts and column charts..
Please help.

Code:
Dim i As Long
Dim oChart As Chart
Dim oSeries As Series
Dim seriesCol As SeriesCollection


Set oChart = ActiveChart
Debug.Print oChart.ChartType


Set ch = oChart.SeriesCollection
For i = 1 To ch.Count
    If ch(i).Name = Selection.Name Then
        Set oSeries = oChart.SeriesCollection(i)
        With oSeries.Format.Fill
            .ForeColor.RGB = RGB(100, 120, 127)
        End With
    End If
Next i
