Excel VBA: Adjust Fill Color of WordArt with a Macro

Feb 15, 2018 Excel Charts
Find out how you can use Excel Macros to control the fill color of Wordart in VBA. In this specific case we'd like to show percentage completion as WordArt and control the amount of the fill color based on the actual percentage. If we have 50%, only half of the 50% word will be highlighted.

This video is more than using Excel VBA to control word art. I'll show you how you can find the right syntax, even when the macro recorder doesn't work and doesn't pick up the right code for you. I'll show you how to use the VBA object library to find the correct syntax and how to use Excel's event procedures to connect the macro to your cell value.
