I have a macro that does some chart formatting but crashes Excel with the
following error.

"Microsoft Excel for Windows has encountered a problem and needs to close.
We are sorry for the inconvenience"

Very occaisionally it will complete succuessfully (10% of the time), but I
have no idea why it does it. I am running Excel 2000 SP3 and have tried on
other machines with the same result.

Is it poor programming somewhere, see code below;
