Default Deleting a chart using VBA


Hi everybody,

I've created some code to draw up a chart when a button is pressed.
However, I'm trying to find a way for the macro to first check to see
if there is already a chart open on the sheet, and if so then delete it
before generating the chart.

Is this possible?

Chart code:


Code:
--------------------
Charts.Add
ActiveChart.ChartType = xlColumnClustered
ActiveChart.SetSourceData Source:=Sheets("Sheet1").Range("G2:J2,G4:J4"), _
PlotBy:=xlRows
ActiveChart.Location Whe=xlLocationAsObject, Name:="Sheet1"
With ActiveChart
.HasTitle = True
.ChartTitle.Characters.Text = "Name1"
.Axes(xlCategory, xlPrimary).HasTitle = True
.Axes(xlCategory, xlPrimary).AxisTitle.Characters.Text = "Month"
.Axes(xlValue, xlPrimary).HasTitle = True
.Axes(xlValue, xlPrimary).AxisTitle.Characters.Text = _
"Text"
End With
ActiveChart.HasLegend = False
ActiveChart.HasDataTable = False
ActiveChart.Axes(xlValue).Select
With ActiveChart.Axes(xlValue)
.MinimumScaleIsAuto = True
.MaximumScaleIsAuto = True
.MinorUnit = 1
.MajorUnit = 1
.Crosses = xlAutomatic
.ReversePlotOrder = False
.ScaleType = xlLinear
.DisplayUnit = xlNone
End With
End Sub
--------------------


Cheers :)
