Default Bar of Pie chart - Need Bar creation

Craig -

It doesn't take many lines to convert the pie to a bar-of-pie, with all
items less than 4% of the total placed in the bar. Apparently your
procedure is based on recorded code. Here's what the macro recorder
showed me when I converted the pie chart:

Sub Macro1()
'
' Macro2 Macro
' Macro recorded 7/5/2005 by Jon Peltier
'
ActiveChart.ChartType = xlBarOfPie
With ActiveChart.ChartGroups(1)
.HasSeriesLines = True
.VaryByCategories = True
.SplitType = xlSplitByPercentValue
.SplitValue = 4
.GapWidth = 100
.SecondPlotSize = 75
End With
End Sub

Making the bar-of-pie from scratch is also pretty straightforward:

Sub Macro2()
'
' Macro2 Macro
' Macro recorded 7/5/2005 by Jon Peltier
'
Charts.Add
ActiveChart.ChartType = xlBarOfPie
ActiveChart.SetSourceData _
Source:=Sheets("TiresSum").Range("C1:D21"), _
PlotBy:=xlColumns
ActiveChart.Location Whe=xlLocationAsObject, Name:="Date"
With ActiveChart
.HasTitle = True
.ChartTitle.Characters.Text = "Tire Usage by Department"
End With
With ActiveChart.ChartGroups(1)
.HasSeriesLines = True
.VaryByCategories = True
.SplitType = xlSplitByPercentValue
.SplitValue = 4
.GapWidth = 100
.SecondPlotSize = 75
End With
End Sub

You seem to have a duplicate "End With", and lots of your lines should
begin with ".", although your newsreader may be overly helpful in
deleting these.
