Example

This example sets the chart's fill format so that its gradient style is changed to msoGradientDiagonalUp if it was originally msoGradientDiagonalDown.

With myChart.ChartArea.Fill 
 If .Type = msoFillGradient Then 
 If .GradientColorType = msoGradientOneColor Then 
 If .GradientStyle = msoGradientDiagonalDown Then 
 .OneColorGradient msoGradientDiagonalUp, _ 
 .GradientVariant, .GradientDegree 
 End If 
 End If 
 End If 
End With
