Default PLEASE help - Fast approaching deadline

I'm not entirely sure what the source of the chart title should be - your code isn't clear, and I'm
not sure that your code actually creates unique charts. It appears to just create the same chart
with the same data over and over again.

Anyway, try changing

..ChartTitle.Characters.Text = 'GradesExamscharts'!R & intRowStart
C2:R & intRowStart C3:R

to this, to get the value from column B:

..ChartTitle.Characters.Text = Worksheets("GradesExamscharts").Cells(intRowStart, 2).Value

or this, to get the value from column C:

..ChartTitle.Characters.Text = Worksheets("GradesExamscharts").Cells(intRowStart, 3).Value

If you have any ideas, please help!
I have the following code which works exactly as I need it to EXCEPT that it
does not change the data or chart titles. I am VERY new to VB and can't
figure out how to write the code to have the data loop. The code produces 12
pages with four
charts to a page but they are all titled the same with the same data. Any
suggestions?
