Hi,

I have a macro which creates new workbooks with charts on them. One o
these charts on each workbook has 3 series' on them, however, some o
these different workbooks have only got data for 1 or 2 of thes
series'. When the code gets to where it shoudl rename the empty serie
I get an error. If I try to then test to see if the name is what i
should be with an If statement it says - unable to get the nam
property of the series class. Hope someone can help!

Set myChart = Worksheets("Sheet1").ChartObjects.Add(chartLeft
chartTop, "384", "166")
With myChart.chart
.ChartType = xlLineMarkers

.SeriesCollection.NewSeries
.SeriesCollection(1).XValues = "='[Kit_Tracker.xls]Charge
Breakdown'!R3C3:R3C" & varIP + 2
.SeriesCollection(1).Values = "='[Kit_Tracker.xls]Charge
Breakdown'!R" & varBreakdownRow & "C3:R" & varBreakdownRow & "C"
varIP + 2
.SeriesCollection(1).Name = "=""Lan PCs"""
