Hey thanks Rgonzo. That works for me :)
</div>


<div>
<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
I have a shape which starts off as<br />
<br />
oBlock1.ShapeStyle = msoShapeStylePreset23<br />
<br />
I want to programmatically make that have a Thick Black Border, but without altering the Fill Style of light blue.<br />
<br />
When I do that with<br />
oBlock1.ShapeStyle = msoShapeStylePreset1<br />
The Fill Style changes to White :(<br />
<br />
How can I only alter the Border?<br />
<br />
Thanks experts!

Office Productivity refers both to the act of being productive and efficient in an office or professional environment, as well as the software applications used to "produce" information. This includes the development of professional skills, creating work processes, and almost any program used to create or modify a document, image, audio or video clip. However, business application suites such as Microsoft Office, which include word processing, spreadsheet and presentation programs, are typically called productivity software, as contrasted with a "utility program," such as a file manager, which is used to organize files and folders on the computer. Many office- and business-oriented groups of programs are organized into suites.

A spreadsheet is an interactive computer application program for organization, analysis and storage of data in tabular form. Spreadsheets developed as computerized simulations of paper accounting worksheets. The program operates on data represented as cells of an array, organized in rows and columns. Each cell of the array may contain either numeric or text data, or the results of formulas that automatically calculate and display a value based on the contents of other cells.

Most development for the Microsoft platform is done utilizing the technologies supported by the.NET framework. Other development is done using Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) for programs like Access, Excel, Word and Outlook, with PowerShell for scripting, or with SQL for large databases.
