XL2002: Color Palette Looks Different in Microsoft Excel 2002 (291293)
The information in this article applies to:
This article was previously published under Q291293 For a Microsoft Excel 2000 version of this article, see 211533.
For a Microsoft Excel 98 version of this article, see 179003.
For a Microsoft Excel 97 version of this article, see 157202.
SYMPTOMS
When you select a color from the color palette, the value of the Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications ColorIndex property of the color you select may not be what you expect.
CAUSE
This occurs because colors within the color palette are sorted chromatically, not by color index. This behavior is different than in Microsoft Excel version 5.0 or 7.0.
REFERENCESFor more information about the ColorIndex property, in the Visual Basic Editor, click Microsoft Visual Basic Help on the Help menu, type colorindex property in the Office Assistant or the Answer Wizard, and then click Search to view the topic.
