Thank you. Just tried...

....snippet...Down...
Dim ActiveChart As ChartObject

Set ActiveChart = ActiveSheet.ChartObjects("Chart 16")
Set rPatterns = ActiveSheet.Range("AR6:BH235")

With ActiveChart
For iSeries = 1 To .SeriesCollection.Count <-- Still Error 91 here

Works fine when you actually have a chart selected. Probably the user did
not have a chart selected, hence "ActiveChart" is not defined. That's what
error 91 is telling you.

If Not rSeries Is Nothing Then
