Try the following:

Sub SetFonts()
Application.EnableEvents = False
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Dim chtobj As ChartObject
Dim scol As Series
Dim dl As DataLabel
For Each chtobj In ActiveSheet.ChartObjects
For Each scol In chtobj.Chart.SeriesCollection
For Each dl In scol.datalabels
With dl.Font
.Name = "Arial"
.FontStyle = "Fet"
.Size = 10
.Strikethrough = False
.Superscript = False
.Subscript = False
.OutlineFont = False
.Shadow = False
.Underline = xlUnderlineStyleNone
.ColorIndex = 1
.Background = xlTransparent
End With
With dl
.NumberFormat = "#,##0"
.AutoScaleFont = True
End With
Next
Next
Next
Application.EnableEvents = True
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub

Hi,
This Sub doesn't work (why?)

I have a number of chartobjects with different numbers of datalabels and
seriecollections. How can I change font size for all charts and
datalabels
in seriescollections all in a row?

Sub SetFonts()
Dim chtobj As ChartObjects
Dim scol As SeriesCollection
Dim dl As DataLabel
For Each chtobj In ActiveSheet
For Each scol In chtobj
For Each dl In scol
With dl.Font
.Name = "Arial"
.FontStyle = "Fet"
.Size = 16
.Strikethrough = False
.Superscript = False
.Subscript = False
.OutlineFont = False
.Shadow = False
.Underline = xlUnderlineStyleNone
.ColorIndex = xlAutomatic
.Background = xlAutomatic
.NumberFormat = "#,##0"
.AutoScaleFont = True
End With
Next
Next
Next
End Sub


Kind regards

Furtther information:
I put a msgbox the line before "With dl.Font" to tell the name of the
activeChart and than I see that the loop never leave the first
activechart...

Marie -

Your procedure works fine for me, changing all the labels to the desired font size.

You also don't need to loop through each data label if the set of them will be the same:

Sub SetFonts()
Application.EnableEvents = False
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Dim chtobj As ChartObject
Dim scol As Series
Dim dl As DataLabel
For Each chtobj In ActiveSheet.ChartObjects
For Each scol In chtobj.Chart.SeriesCollection
With scol.DataLabels.Font
.Name = "Arial"
.FontStyle = "Fet"
.Size = 10
.Strikethrough = False
.Superscript = False
.Subscript = False
.OutlineFont = False
.Shadow = False
.Underline = xlUnderlineStyleNone
.ColorIndex = 1
.Background = xlTransparent
End With
With scol.DataLabels
.NumberFormat = "#,##0"
.AutoScaleFont = True
End With
Next
Next
Application.EnableEvents = True
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub
