Yes, but the exact process depends on the version of CR you're using.  

For 8.5 you want to find the Chart Analyzer menu option - I believe it's under the Report menu and only appears when you're in preview mode.  Click on the chart then click the toolbar icon that looks like the letter "A" and choose the color.

For 9 just right click on the chart and select Chart Options -> Selected Item and you can choose the color there.

If you need more details just let me know.

That's excellent Dan.

I've searched for this before but always dismissed it as rumour.  It's the left-click before the right click that appears to be the key (well that's what I've been missing, anyway!)
