That doesn't do one chart, it does all of the charts and shapes on the
sheet. It might do what the OP wanted, but not what I interpreted that he
wanted.

Hi,

take a look at the command Tools, Options, View tab, Show Placeholders or
Hide All. You can record a macro to toggle this on and off.

Sub ToggleCharts()
If ActiveWorkbook.DisplayDrawingObjects = xlHide Then
ActiveWorkbook.DisplayDrawingObjects = xlDisplayShapes
Else
ActiveWorkbook.DisplayDrawingObjects = xlHide
End If
End Sub

Thanks,

I have a bar chart that I would like to hide so I can possibly assign it
to a
macro and have it unhide and hide at the push of a button. Does anybody
know
if this is possible or any other ways to do it? Thanks.
