Default Obtaining cell reference from index function

You are extracting a value that is derived from the value in B3. There is
nothing in your code that makes reference to B3.

Perhaps take a look at this page by John Walkenbach

A Class Module to Manipulate a Chart SERIES

The code he offers shows how to get the range reference and then you can
offset from there.

I am attemtping to build custom screen tips for a scatter graph and

already
been given some help. However I am stuck again. The following code extract

myX = WorksheetFunction.Index _
(.SeriesCollection(Arg1).XValues, Arg2)
' Extract y value from array of y values
myY = WorksheetFunction.Index _
(.SeriesCollection(Arg1).Values, Arg2)

populates two variables (myX and myY) which correspond to the x and y
values. What I am having trouble with is obtaining the cell reference to
either offset from to obtain the data I wish to display in my custom

screen
tip.
If for example, myX extracts a value from cell B3, i need to access B5 for
my custom data.
I must be getting close.

Thanks to anyone who helps me in my (hopefully) final hurdle.
