Extract a picture from Background of a Graph
Hi,
I don't believe you can if the image has been used to fill chart or plot area. If the image had been used to fill a column series then yes. If you really need the image then you could change the data so no columns and or lines are displayed. Remove plot area border, legend, titles and all axis labeling. Make the plot area a large as possible and then capture the screen image. Copy the image into something like MS Paint and crop and same the image.

Extract a picture from Background of a Graph
also ... having emptied the chart try simply copy and paste into a graphics
app. Or with more options hold Shift and Copy-picture..., then paste into the graphics app (I use IrfanView). If you have merely forgotten the name of the picture, which might still exist on disc, its name may still be available to VBA. Regards, Peter T "Andy Pope" wrote in message ...
