Hi,

I have an email that is saved to a text file and then I run an excel
macro to format the data and apply formulas where needed. At the end I
copy the last 2 columns to a seperate existing excel doc, where I will
then create charts.
Now my issues come in when I copy the last two columns to transfer it
to the chart document. Digging around on the web make it seem that the
data is not saved on the clipboard when trying to paste to the chart
document giving the Method Error. I can follow the macro copying and
pasting the data, so it must be visible on the clipboard, the error
actually appears after the past action.

I get the "method error" when using range and I get the "object does
not support this property" when using activecells (see further in the
case statement).

This is mostly recorded macro modified where needed, I use WinXP pro
and Office 2003.


Can anybody shed any light on this ?

Cheers
Lourens
