Use embedded Excel to provide RGB

I want to embed an Excel spreadsheet into a PP page to calculate R, G and B from some data I have. Then I would like to have these RGB values drive the color of a drawing object on the same page. Is this possible?
 
Larry,
Not exactly sure at what you are hinting, but looks to me like a VBA
solution possibly.

I have spectrophotometer data of objects that can be processed to provide color in RGB. Since PP can show color in RGB, I want to embed this calculation routine and then show objects in the calculated color

Thanks for the help!
 
Larry,
This would certainly involve some amount of coding. You would need to read
a value and then assign it to other shapes.

Find and recolor -http://www.mvps.org/skp/pptxp006.htm - this routine will
help with the recolor part. Are you familiar with VBA?

I am not really familiar with VBA (though I knew BASIC many years ago in college). However, I could probably learn enough to get by with this problem if I can get routines that you have directed me to--thanks
