Default Get parameters to create existing chart

Essentially you have to find all of the properties for all of the elements
in the chart. It's not really hard, but it's intricate and tedious work. I
am in the process of quoting on such a utility, which may eventually become
a commercial product.

I'm looking for a way to get all of the paramters used for creating a
chart so I can do it dynamically. Someone else created a fairly
complicated chart and I'd like to be able to re-create it in code so I can
change the data range and title but I'm not sure how. It's complicated
enough that I haven't been able to re-create it manually yet (so I can
just record it and get the params that way) I've been reading all of the
dynamic chart code in the MS KB and various websites, but I haven't found
any code to document an existing chart to create it dynamically.

TIA

Matt
