Error numbers are not nearly as descriptive as error messages.
Error 91 has the message "Object variable not set". The object it is looking
for is ActiveChart.
Select a chart and try again.
However, I suggest you use the non-VBA approach. It is easier to set up and
easier to debug.

I have a bar chart that I would like to format the color depending on
the
value in the data range.
If the value of the data point is 1 I'd like to format the bar in the
chart
red, if the value is 2 then blue, if the value is 3 then gold and if
the
value is 4 then green.
I read some earlier posts and I feel more comfotabel using some vba in
order
to complete this.
I did try to use a function posted in an answer to another question but
I
get the following error at this line " Set Pts =
ActiveChart.SeriesCollection(1).Points(Cnt)": Run Time Error 91
Here is the code:
Sub ColorBars()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Dim Rng As Range
Dim Cnt As Integer
Cnt = 1
For Each Rng In Range("G66:G77")
Set Pts = ActiveChart.SeriesCollection(1).Points(Cnt)
If Rng.Value = "1" Then
Pts.Interior.ColorIndex = 24
ElseIf Rng.Value = "3" Then
Pts.Interior.ColorIndex = 15
ElseIf Rng.Value = "4" Then
Pts.Interior.ColorIndex = 19
End If
Cnt = Cnt + 1
Next Rng
End Sub
