Editing fill color in an org chart

I have an org chart in which I'd like to change the color of the boxes. I think it was created in Word and saved as a PDF.  

I could export it back to Word but I'd have to ungroup the object and recolor each box.

Here's what I've tried in Adobe:

1. Select shape (box)

2. Right-click, Edit using MS Paint.

3. I select the entire image.

4.  Click on color selection

5.  Click Fill Button

6. Object is deselected and no color change s made.

Any suggestions?

After you changes the color in ms paint you have save the file. If the problem is still the same then edit with Adobe Photoshop.

Hi.

Since I guess that this chart is in vector format, your only choice is to right-clic (using the "Edit text & image" tool) and choose: Edit with Illustrator.

One the chart is opened in Illustrator, edit as needed, then Save, and Close.
