I got an excel template from a sister site, and i wanted to add a color to a VBA Code that was already written, an i got an error message type 13 mismatch on the WhoAmI function.
could anyone help please. by the way i'm by far not a good coder.

thanks

Sub ChangeColor()
Dim WhoAmI As String, sh As Shape
WhoAmI = Application.Caller
With ActiveSheet.Shapes(WhoAmI).Fill.ForeColor
Select Case .RGB
Case vbWhite
.RGB = vbGreen
Case vbGreen
.RGB = vbYellow
Case vbYellow
.RGB = vbBlue
Case vbBlue
.RGB = vbRed
Case vbMagenta
.RGB = vbMagenta
Case Else
.RGB = vbWhite
End Select
End With
End Sub

How to create a cell-sized chart?
Tiny charts, called Sparklines, were added to Excel 2010. Look for Sparklines on the Insert tab.
Have you assigned the macro to a shape? are you using the shape to start the macro? because this is how it should be used.
