And when you make a chart, don't use Charts.Add. This first adds a chart
sheet, then transfers the chart to a sheet. Use the
Sheet.ChartObjects.Add directly. This allows you (forces you actually)
to include the position and size of the chart.

This is how it looks:

Sub AddChartObject()
With ActiveSheet.ChartObjects.Add _
(Left:=100, Width:=375, Top:=75, Height:=225)
.Chart.ChartType = xlXYScatterLines
.Chart.SetSourceData Source:=Sheets("Sheet1").Range("A3:G14")
End With
End Sub

Hi Aja,

This routine will resize all the chartobjects on the activesheet.

Sub ResizeChartObjects()
Dim sngWidth As Single
Dim sngHeight As Single
Dim objCht As ChartObject

sngWidth = 100
sngHeight = 75
For Each objCht In ActiveSheet.ChartObjects
objCht.Width = sngWidth
objCht.Height = sngHeight
Next
End Sub

Is this what you meant?

Cheers
Andy
