I need to be able to add some text to charts ("Max", "Min", "Target" for
example) from within an Excel VBA Macro. At this point I have been unable to
get this to take place. The code that I had tried is as follows:

' add text box labels
chrtobj.Chart.Shapes.AddLabel(msoTextOrientationHo rizontal, 133.5, 105#,
0# _
, 0#).Select
Selection.ShapeRange(1).TextFrame.AutoSize = msoTrue
Selection.Characters.Text = "UPPER"
Selection.AutoScaleFont = False
With Selection.Characters(Start:=1, Length:=5).Font
.Name = "Arial"
.FontStyle = "Regular"
.Size = 10
.Strikethrough = False
.Superscript = False
.Subscript = False
.OutlineFont = False
.Shadow = False
.Underline = xlUnderlineStyleNone
.ColorIndex = xlAutomatic
End With
Selection.ShapeRange.Fill.Visible = msoFalse
Selection.ShapeRange.Fill.Solid
Selection.ShapeRange.Fill.Transparency = 0#
Selection.ShapeRange.Line.Weight = 0.75
Selection.ShapeRange.Line.DashStyle = msoLineSolid
Selection.ShapeRange.Line.Style = msoLineSingle
Selection.ShapeRange.Line.Transparency = 0#
Selection.ShapeRange.Line.Visible = msoTrue
Selection.ShapeRange.Line.ForeColor.SchemeColor = 8
Selection.ShapeRange.Line.BackColor.RGB = RGB(255, 255, 255)
Selection.ShapeRange.IncrementLeft -0.36
Selection.ShapeRange.IncrementTop -8.98

But when I use this code (which worked when I recorded it), I get a VBA
"Run-time error '438': Object doesn't support this property or method" and it
takes me to the debugger.

Any ideas on why this is happening and how I can get the labels on the
chart? Thanks,
