bookmark a chart?
 

Hi, I can hyperlink to cell A1 in a worksheet using this format:
Book1.xls#Sheet1!A1
byt I can't figure out how to name a chart or create a bookmark to a chart
"worksheet" or chart object so I can hyperlink to either. Is this possible
and, if so, how do you do it?

Thanks,
Mike

You can't hyperlink to the chart sheet, but Jon Peltier has a macro
workaround in his Charting FAQ article:

that you may be able to use.

Thank you, this was helpful, but doesn't quite solve my problem which I
should have stated earlier. BookA has the hyperlink to a chart in BookB. I
need to copy the chart from BookB into a new worksheet in BookA using VBA.
How would I do that?

Thanks again,
Mike

A worksheet has cells, and may have chart objects embedded in it.

A chart sheet has no cells, but usually has a visible chart as its "sheet". It may
also have chart objects embedded in it, but that's an advanced topic.

To move a chart sheet:

Workbooks("BookB").Sheets("Chart1").Move Befo=Workbooks("BookA").Sheets(1)

To copy a chart object:

Workbooks("BookB").Sheets("Sheet1").ChartObjects(1 ).Copy
Workbooks("BookA").Sheets("Sheet2").Paste
