VBA (Excel 2007) how can I detect fill format of SeriesCollection?

you can test:

if ActiveChart.SeriesCollection(1).Fill.GradientColorType = msoGradientTwoColors then
  'your code

you can see the properties of an object in the debugger (i had some troubles finding this one in the help). In this particular case, i was spying: ActiveChart.SeriesCollection(1). Then, you can expand the properties to find which one apply to your case.
