Unfortunately for you the rainbow style uses the colours of the rainbow (as
they appear in a rainbow) starting with Red and ending with Violet (or
reversed). I don't believe there is any way to change the order in which the
colours appear. You are going to have to use a third party graphics utility
to create fills that contain a preferred range of colours. The next best
thing would be to colour the individual letters of a plain text sequence.

But if a blend from yellow to green (without the other colors) is what is
wanted, then that's possible, I believe.

That would work for just two colours, but I get the feeling that all the
colours are required
