Powerpoint 2010 VBA help with AddShape and back color

[DougP]

I want to set the background color of a rectangle. I figured out how to change the font color to black (green hiightlight) but the back color of the box itself illudes me. the yellow hightlight does nothing as well as putting it down in the "With .font" does nothing. So how do I change the background of a it to white. Now it's blue but I don't know how it got to be blue? none of the other shapes on the other slides are blue?
TIA

With myDocument.Shapes.AddShape(msoShapeRectangle, _
                 Centerline - 95, 10, ShapeWidth, ShapeHeight)
                 [highlight #FCE94F].Fill.BackColor.RGB = RGB(255, 255, 255)[/highlight]                 
                 .TextFrame2.TextRange.Text = FirstName & " " & Lastname & vbCrLf & _
                                    Title & vbCrLf & _
                                    GetOrganizationNameAccess(FullName) & vbCrLf & _
                                    GetCountsAccess(FullName)
                 
                 'ActivePresentation.Slides(2).Shapes.AddShape.TextFrame2.TextRange.Font.Fill.BackColor.
                 With .TextFrame2.TextRange.Font
                    .Name = "Tahoma"
                    .Size = 10
                    [highlight #8AE234].Fill.ForeColor.RGB = RGB(0, 0, 0)[/highlight]                 
            End With

I figured it out
just shut off the color

.Fill.Visible = msoFalse
