Default Error message when adding a name

Try this instead:

ActiveChart.SeriesCollection(1).Name = _
"=" & Range("a1").Address(external:=True, _
ReferenceStyle:=xlR1C1)

I get the following errors when trying to add a name to a chart using my
macro.
Code copied directly from recorded macro
ActiveSheet.ChartObjects("Chart 1").Activate
ActiveChart.SeriesCollection(1).Name = "=A1"

run-time error 1004
Application defined or object-defined error.
Why is it not working?

Thanks
