I am drawing column chart in Excel 2007 & 2010:

enter image description here

The slides of my colleagues are all made in Excel 2003, they have a gradient fill as follows:

I really would like to fill the same style in my column chart, but it seems that no combination in the customizing window does this in Excel 2007 & 2010.

Could anyone help?
