Default Newseries; macro to code

Like a lot of stuff I do the macro thing first to get a general idea
of the landscape. Here I'm up against the limits of my ability.

This has been working just fine for a while

myChart.SeriesCollection.NewSeries
myChart.SeriesCollection(2).Values = "='HCLHotBath'!
R75C107:R75C250"
myChart.SeriesCollection(2).Name = "B2Alpha"

Now, all of a sudden it bombs on the .Name =, the message is

"Unable to set the Name property of the Series Class"

I have this feeling that SeriesCollection(2) really isn't there. But,
on the other hand, the values plotted. I can see it. I would think
there would be a way to create a series object and THEN add it to the
chart somehow.

(Seems a little flaky to rely on NewSeries returning the "next"
number. What if someone altered the code above later.)

Thank you.
