I have this macro basically done, I am having a problem with settig
th
source range for the chart though. I think it is simply a syntax erro
bu
I am not sure - any advice would be helpful as I am stuck. Here is th
par
of the code
Dim LastDataRow As Lon
LastDataRow = Cells(Rows.Count, "C").End(xlUp).Ro
If LastDataRow = 1 Then GoTo MyErrorHandle
Els
Sheets("InputSheet").Visible = Fals
Sheets("Chart1").Visible = Tru
Sheets("Chart1").Selec
With ActiveChar
.SetSourceDat
Source:=Workbooks("Main.xls").Sheets("DataSheet"). Range("C1", Range("H" & LastDataRow)),
PlotBy:=xlColumn
.HasTitle = Tru
.ChartTitle.Characters.Text = "Chart
.Axes(xlValue, xlPrimary).HasTitle = Tru
.Axes(xlValue, xlPrimary).AxisTitle.Characters.Text
"Percentage
.HasAxis(xlCategory, xlPrimary) = Tru
.HasAxis(xlValue, xlPrimary) = Tru
.Axes(xlCategory, xlPrimary).CategoryType = xlAutomati
.HasLegend = False
.HasDataTable = True
.DataTable.ShowLegendKey = True
End With
End If
Exit Sub
MyErrorHandler:
'"Whole bunch of stuff here"
End Sub
I am getting the error "Mehtod 'Range' of Object '_Global' Failed" on
the
.SetSourceData command. And I get some problems with my "if" and "else"
statements. What am I doing wrong - looking at it, it should work, I just
don't know where I am going wrong.
Thanks for any advice,
Jim
