I have a good code to capture and extract data from a chart using a MouseUp
event (Thanks to Jon Peltier) - now I would like to push my luck and ask for
additional help.
My current code allows me to capture an "X" value and paste it into another
analysis area. I would like to be able to capture a second value; can I set
something up to capture the second value with a right click or maybe a
Ctrl-click?
The user would then click a second time to get the second value.

Is this possible?

Thanks for the help.

You could use the same even procedure, and make it smart enough to know the
first value has been selected so it adds the new value to a different cell.

Or you can put the value into a different cell based on the button that was
clicked. The procedure starts with this line:

Private Sub Chart_MouseUp(ByVal Button As Long, ByVal Shift As Long, _
ByVal x As Long, ByVal y As Long)
Use something like this to direct the output: Select Case Button Case
xlPrimaryButton ' left click ' save in first cell Case
xlSecondaryButton ' right click ' save in second cell End Select

Thanks yet again for your help, Jon.
That solution is just what the boss wanted.
