Fellow sufferers!

The 2nd line below fails (run-time error 1004):

Code: 
   Set cht = Sheets("Approval (F3)").ChartObjects.Add(0, 0, 300, 300).Chart
    cht.Activate

Why can I not activate a chart I just created?!?

Bring active cell back into view
Start at A1 and select to A9999 while writing a formula, you can't see A1 anymore. Press Ctrl+Backspace to bring active cell into view.

You would need to activate the container shape like this:

Code: 
 cht.Parent.Activate

assuming you actually have a need to activate it at all.
