Hi Rui -

You shouldn't have to select an element to edit it.

You didn't indicate which line threw the error.

I would not have assigned the built in chart type. I would have started
with a column chart, added each series and defined its X and Y range and
name, then if appropriate changed its chart type and the axis it is
assigned to.

Hi everyone. I created a macro with the Record New Macro in Excel to
create a chart "Lines on 2 Axes". When I create the chart by hand, all
goes well, but when I replay the macro it crashes with the error
"Run-time error '1004' Method'Axes' of object'_Chart' failed". Can
anyone help me here? I am completely desperate, I don't know what to
do. I tried Jon Peltier's answer to this

question but it doesn't seem to work for me.

Here's my code:

Espera").Range("A1")

Espera'!R4C2:R15C2"

Espera'!R4C4:R15C4"
ActiveChart.SeriesCollection(1).Name = "='Tempo Médio de
