Hi,
I've got problem with charts in vba.
I'd like to modifty data in the chart.
For example data of series1 are addressed "=CHF!A1:A5" and I'd like to
change it for "EUR!A1:A5". I've got to read first where the data of series1
are located.

I wanted to do it through:

dim strAddress as string
dim obChart as Chart

....

strAddress=obChart.SeriesCollection(1).Values

but it doesnt work because obChart.SeriesCollection(1).Values returns array.
How to read the address of series1?

Thanks for help
Mariusz

You can use the Formula property of the series. Jon Peltier has
instructions on his web site:

Hi Mariusz,

Try this ;
strAddress=obChart.SeriesCollection(1).formula
