Hello all,

I run some VBA code spawning it from vbscript. Several workbooks are opened,
one of which has several sheets and one of these sheets has a chart in it.
The sheet name with the chart is named SPC.
In the VBA code contained in ThisWorkbook I have the following code:

Dim oSPCchart

Set oSPCchart = Workbooks("SPCbook").Sheets("SPC").ChartObjects(1)
oSPCchart.Chart.Export "d:\Verification\test.gif", "GIF"


The error is:
Run-time error 1004
Application-defined or object-define error

I have tried other code variants but always get some type of 1004 error.
Does anyone have any tips?

Thanks in advance, Milos.

Here is the example from VBA Help.

Example
This example exports chart one as a GIF file.

Worksheets("Sheet1").ChartObjects(1) _
..Chart.Export _
FileName:="current_sales.gif", FilterName:="GIF"

It seems to be a syntax problem.

Thanks for that Stan.

I did exactly as you suggested and I now get the following error:

Subscript out of range

All the relevant workbooks are open and the chart is present, so I don't
know what is going on.
Thanks once again, Milos.

Milos-

The " subscript out of range" error means the system can't find something
that is referenced in a collection index. In this case, the problem is the
reference in the workbooks collection. VBA requires the the complete file
name, including the extension.

The code should work if you use - Workbooks("SPCbook.xls").Sheets("SPC...
when you set the oSPChart object.
