tlt: 0x03 specifies that the tick mark labels are placed next to the axis.

wBkgMode: 0x01 specifies that the background of the text of the axis labels is transparent.

rgb:  is ignored because fAutoCo is set to 1.

fAutoCo: 0x0001 specifies that the text of the axis labels uses an automatically selected foreground color, based on the display settings of the computer.

fAutoMode: 0x0001 specifies that the background color of the axis label is set according to the preceding DefaultText record in the chart.
