Referencing worksheet CODENAME in a chart object.
 

Hi all,

I have an excel chart (generated by the Chart Wizard) that references the
worksheet NAME. For example, when i right click on chart, and select 'Source
Data' i see the 'Data Range' reference the worksheet NAME as follows:

='Main Menu'!$D$13:$D$14,'Main Menu'!$E$13:$E$14

But the 'Main Menu' worksheet has a CODE NAME of of "Main". I've tried
numerous permutations but i just cannot get this chart's Data Range to
reference the worksheet CODE NAME instead.

Can anyone help?

Thanks

How about:

ActiveChart.SetSourceData Source:=Main.Range("d13:e14")

When I recorded a macro, the range was combined into one reference.

Even this way worked:

ActiveChart.SetSourceData Source:=Main.Range("A1:A21,C1:C21"), _
PlotBy:=xlColumns
