Anyway to change a Chart number?
 

Is there a way to give a chart a specific number? Everytime I delete and
create a new chart, Excel automatically give it the next sequential number,
I'm running VB in the charts so it's a pain to constantly changing my scripts
in VB. Thanks in advance.

Hi,

Whilst you can not specify the automatic name you can change the name of
the newly create chart with code.

If you need more help post you existing code.

Cheers

Thanks for your advise. I'm not using codes to create a chart, I'm using
codes to adjust certain aspects of various charts in my spreadsheet in a
sequencial way, and the issue I'm having is that everytime I delete a chart
and create a new one, Excel assigns the next number to the chart, which
makes my programing very difficult.

Can you email me an example of creating a new chart and assigning a name of
my choice?

Thanks again.

Hold the shift key down and click on the chart. This selects the chart
object. You can then click on the formula bar where it shows 'Chart 21' and
rename (press enter after changing the name of the object).
