How can I set Text Color (and Background color) in PPT 2007

Question

I am trying to set the color of a text in PPT from my C++ project.

The attribute TextRange->Font->Color cannot be modified ?!

I should feel much obliged if you can provide me any further help.

Thanks.

Font.Color is an object, not a property.

To change the color you need to change Font.Color.RGB to a long representing the color you want. Or change Font.Color.ObjectThemeColor to a long representing the index of the theme color you want.

Ah. But I'm speaking in VBA-tongues. My Longs are probably your Integers.
