Default Graphic Data Marker in Excel 2007 Charts

Hi,

Create a line chart with 2 series. Then with the chart selected run this
routine.
Make sure you change the UserPicture filename to one that is on your system.

Sub MyMarkers()
' from file
With ActiveChart.SeriesCollection(1)
.Format.Fill.UserPicture "C:\Waterfall.jpg"
.MarkerSize = 20
End With

' from shape on worksheet
With ActiveChart.SeriesCollection(2)
ActiveSheet.Shapes("Picture 1").Copy
.Paste
End With
End Sub

Cheers
Andy

Hi,

I would like to add some pictures as data markers in my line chart using
excel VBA. I tried recording a macro to do this but the code is not
generated
for the insert picture part. Does any one have an idea for this.

Regards,
Mohan
