In earlier versions of MS Office/Excel, I have easily extracted as .gif files
charts that I created in Excel worksheets. Either I've simply forgotten how
or something's changed. Anyone help me through this?

does this help?
Sub ExportChartGIF()
ActiveChart.Export Filename:="C:\a\MyChart.gif", _
FilterName:="GIF"
End Sub

Sub ExportChartJPG()
ActiveChart.Export Filename:="C:\a\MyChart.jpg", _
FilterName:="jpeg"
End Sub

This would help if I were a programmer; I'm not. Formerly, my memory is that
when the Excel file saved, it also created a folder into which all graphics
files associated with the .xls file were saved. I simply opened that folder
and moved the .gif file to my website where I wanted the chart.

Is their a solution for a non-programmer?

Thanks for the effort.

I bet you saved the file as .html to get that subfolder with the graphics.

Perfect. That really isn't what I did before, I don't think, but had exactly
the same result -- thank you VERY much, Dave.

Hi Dick,

Another way is to select the chart and copy it with ctrl+c then open any
image processing software you have and paste into that. You can then save as
whatever image type you wish bitmap, jpeg, gif, tiff etc. The standard
microsoft Paint will do just fine.

I just learned this. Hold down the Shift key and click on the Edit menu. You
will get a different menu where you can copy picture, and then paste it.
