Selecting chartobject without index no.
I have 25 worksheets each with 2 graphs. I need to revise the source series for all the graphs in these worksheets. I thought I can use VB language to auto change the series reference but I do not know the index number for each of the chart "ActiveSheet.ChartObjects("index").Activate Hope I could have advice on how to activate each charts without useing the chart index -- Thanks a million for your time and expert advice :-) Jaylin *****Jaylin Message ended******* |

Well, first of all, if the index is a number, make sure you don't put it in
quotes. Second of all, you can name the charts uniquely, either in code if the charts are generated automatically, or by hand after the fact.

To find out the chart object index, run this from the Immediate Widow, and
see what's activated: ActiveSheet.ChartObjects(1).Select Change the (1) to see what all the numbers refer to. - Jon ------- Jon Peltier, Microsoft Excel MVP Tutorials and Custom Solutions http://PeltierTech.com _______ "Jaylin" wrote in message ...
