Referencing sheets/objects

I know it's writing the active sheet name to CSheet because I can read it using msgbox so why won't the reference work?? CSheet = ActiveSheet.Name Charts.Add ActiveChart.ChartType = xlXYScatterSmoothNoMarkers ActiveChart.SetSourceData Source:=Sheets("CSheet").Range("C16:D82"), PlotBy _ :=xlColumns ActiveChart.Location Whe=xlLocationAsObject, Name:="CSheet" etc.. -- dve11 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ dve11's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=31618 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=513129 |
