I spent a lot of time "beautifying" my graphs in excel.
Setting fonts, plot area properties, series color, series patterns, etc ...

I dislike the ones that are the default; Can someone help me.

Thank you for your promptly response. I've read the link you posted and althoug it's in the direction I'm looking it's not enough. I still have to change plot area properties, series properties (mark, color, sizes, etc).

Is there a way to do what I'm trying ..?

Activate one of your charts, then go to Chart/Chart Types/Custom Types and click User Defined, click Add... and choose a name for your chart type.

Now select your new chart type in the list of Chart Types, and click the "Set as default chart" button.

That should do what you want.

Cheers, Glenn.
