hi
how do i find if multiple chart objects are selected by the user using
the ctrl + click mechanism?
chiman

demo'd from the immediate window:

' two selected
? typename(selection)
DrawingObjects

' one selected
? typename(selection)
ChartArea

If I put it in drawing mode from the drawing toolbar and forced it to
actually select a single chart object it was

? typename(selection)
ChartObject

A better test might be

if activechart is nothing then
' this would indicate that a single chart object is not select. What is
select could be not a chartobject or multiple chartobjects

If you want to know if it is multiple chartobjects, you can loop through the
selection.
again, from the immediate window:

for each obj in selection: ?typename(obj): next
ChartObject
ChartObject
