Sporadic error after pasting chart

[pbassett]

Suddenly this code fails most of the time at the statement

With .chart.Shapes(1)

because there are no Shapes in the Chart Object!
Does anyone know why pasting the Chart would sometimes not result in a Shape?

Public Sub saveOrgChart(title As String)
    Dim shp As Shape, sht As Worksheet
    Dim chtObj As ChartObject
    Dim objTemp As Object
    Dim objPicTemp As Object
    Dim sngWidth As Single, sngHeight As Single, fName As String, i As Integer
       
    For Each shp In ActiveSheet.Shapes
        If shp.Type = msoSmartArt Then
            Call ConfigureShape(shp)
            Set objTemp = shp
        End If
    Next shp
    Set sht = Workbooks("GraphicsExporter.xla").Worksheets("PicHolder")
    Set chtObj = sht.ChartObjects(1)
    Do While Not Application.Ready: Sleep 10: Loop
    objTemp.Copy
    Do While Not Application.Ready: Sleep 10: Loop
    Set objPicTemp = ActiveSheet.Pictures.Paste
    With objPicTemp
        sngWidth = .Width
        sngHeight = .Height
    End With
    With chtObj
        .Width = sngWidth + 20
        .Height = sngHeight + 20
    End With
    With objPicTemp
        Do While Not Application.Ready: Sleep 10: Loop
        .Copy
        Do While Not Application.Ready: Sleep 10: Loop
        .Delete
    End With
    Set objPicTemp = Nothing
    
    With chtObj
        For i = .chart.Shapes.Count To 1 Step -1
            .chart.Shapes(i).Delete
        Next i
        Do While Not Application.Ready: Sleep 10: Loop
        .chart.Paste
        Do While Not Application.Ready: Sleep 10: Loop
        With .chart.Shapes(1)
            .Placement = xlMove
            .Left = -4
            .Top = -4
        End With
        .Width = sngWidth + 1
        .Height = sngHeight + 1
        fName = savePath & "\Org Charts\" & title
'        .Chart.Export fName & ".jpg"
        .Activate
        sht.Visible = xlSheetVisible
        .chart.ExportAsFixedFormat Type:=xlTypePDF, Filename:=fName & ".pdf", _
            Quality:=xlQualityStandard, IncludeDocProperties:=True, IgnorePrintAreas:=False, OpenAfterPublish:=False
        sht.Visible = xlSheetHidden
        myWorkbook.Sheets(mySheet.Name).Activate
    End With
    Set chtObj = Nothing
End Sub
