Excel Facts

Do you hate GETPIVOTDATA?
Prevent GETPIVOTDATA. Select inside a PivotTable. In the Analyze tab of the ribbon, open the dropown next to Options and turn it off
In your macro I had to replace
Code:
[FONT=Verdana]cht.Chart.Name = "Actual"[/FONT]
by
Code:
[FONT=Verdana]cht.Name = "Actual"[/FONT]
to get it named.

Then
Code:
[FONT=inherit]Set MyChart [FONT=inherit]=[/FONT][FONT=inherit] ActiveSheet[/FONT][FONT=inherit].[/FONT][FONT=inherit]Shapes[/FONT][FONT=inherit]("Actual")[/FONT][/FONT]
would work
