Hello,

I need to save some Excel Graphs as jpg files. How can I do it?

Thank you.

Athena

Hi,

Requires code. Syntax: Activechart.Export <filename , <filtertype

You can use this in the immediate window,(ALT+F11 CTRL+G)

Activechart.export "C:\mychart.jpg"

Cheers

Hello Andy,

Thank you very much. It worked. Do you happened to know how to set the
resolution of the jpeg image as well?

There is no control over the resolution of the exported image. You get
whatever the resolution of the screen is.

By the way, JPG is really the wrong format for a chart. Most computer
graphics are better suited to PNG or GIF, which are also possible using the
Chart.Export method Andy provided. The JPG format was designed for
photographic images, which have areas of gradually changing colors and
shadows. JPG does poorly where there are sharp transitions of colors, for
example, along the edges of shapes and in text. For these situations, which
are what charts are made of, PNG is probably your best choice.
