Property Value

Remarks

Parameter

Description

Index

The index number of a color in the workbook color palette (from 1 to 56). If this argument is not specified, this property returns an array that contains all 56 of the colors in the palette.

If you attempt to use Colors without specifying any parameters, Colors will get a Workbook_ColorsType object that is part of the Office development tools in Visual Studio infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code.

The workbook palette has 56 entries, each represented by an RGB value.

Optional Parameters

For information on optional parameters, see Optional Parameters in Office Solutions.

Examples

The following code example uses the Colors property to set the first color in the workbook's color palette to blue, and then programmatically displays the Microsoft Office Excel Color Palette dialog to verify that this change was made.

This example is for a document-level customization.

Private Sub SetFirstColorInPalette()
    Me.Colors(1) = System.Drawing.ColorTranslator.ToOle(System.Drawing.Color.Blue)
    Me.Application.Dialogs( _
        Excel.XlBuiltInDialog.xlDialogColorPalette).Show()
End Sub
private void SetFirstColorInPalette()
{
    this.Colors[1] = System.Drawing.ColorTranslator.ToOle(System.Drawing.Color.Blue);

    this.Application.Dialogs[
        Excel.XlBuiltInDialog.xlDialogColorPalette].Show();
}
