You can use the chart's events in the worksheet that contains the chart. For
example, in the Sheet1 module in the VBAProject for the workbook, use the
following code:
Public WithEvents CHT As Excel.Chart
Private Sub CHT_BeforeDoubleClick(ByVal ElementID As Long, ByVal Arg1 As
Long, _
ByVal Arg2 As Long, Cancel As Boolean)
Cancel = True
''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
' YOUR CODE HERE
''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
MsgBox "You are here"
End Sub
Then you need to Set CHT to the chart:
Sub InitCHT()
Set Sheet1.CHT = Sheet1.ChartObjects(1).Chart
End Sub

...
Excel 2003, I create a chart programmatically. Now I would like to capture
Click Events on that chart I just created. It doesn't seem I can put code
under that object via code.
My actual situation is I have run time data, and my customer and I have
not
been able to come up with a programmatic way of reliably finding certain
sections of data to be used for further calculations. (His current method
is,
"I look at it")
My thought was to display a graph of the data, using builtin excel tools,
and eventually let him pick points. Maybe an alt-click or something on a
series would pop up a menu where he could designate which one of three
sections this is. Based on that selection I could process N points around
it
or whatever.
Since I'm still trying to figure out how to do this, any ideas on how I
could detect a click on a chart/series that doesn't exist at code time
would
be appreciated.
Thanks, Bob
