selecting a chart
 

If typename(selection) = "Chart" then

Based on a later question, perhaps you are trying to see if a chart is
located over the selection (cells don't contain charts). You can do this

if the selection is a range of cells:

Dim cobj as ChartObject, rng as Range
for each cobj in Activesheet.ChartObjects
set rng = Range(cobj.topLeftCell,cobj.BottomRightCell)
if not intersect(rng,selection) is nothing then
msgbox cobj.Name & " is located over selection"
end if
Next

selecting a chart
 

what is the typename equivalent in COM?
I get a IDispatch pointer when I do GetSelection on the application
object.
If i do a QueryInterface for the _Chart interface, i get a null .

in com the selection is returned as a IDispatch pointer.
When I do a query interface on it for _Chart, it fails.
