You can do this, but describe what you're after in more detail.
It may not be necessary to use VBA.

For example, a simple transition from Slide A to a duplicate of it, Slide B,
might do the job. On Slide B you've selected the shape and changed the color.
You know and I know that there are two different slides. The audience won't.

And it'll remain our little secret.

What Steve said, but if you really want to do it in VBA, it is not that
hard. I have examples on my site that change text color (such as Example
6.8), but I couldn't find any that changed object color. But it would be
something like this:

ActivePresentation.Slides(1).Shapes(3).Fill.ForeColor.RGB = vbRed

to change the third shape on the first slide to red.

Of course, in PPT2002/2003 you can use SlideShow > Custom Animation. Click
add effect, then Emphasis. Then CHange Fill and/or Change Line color.
