How do I change the colors of the bars on a bar chart

Post by red2 »

I am working with a 2.3 version of OO on linux. I am using the chart wizard to insert a stacked bar chart in a spreadsheet. I would like to change the colors that make up the bars. Three values make up each bar. I need to show the good values in green, the not so good in yellow, and the bad in red. Can someone help me with this?
