What exactly is the problem? Error running code maybe or just not the desired result.
Post example workbook and explain further your problem.

Have you tried the macro recorder?

Unless I'm misreading some of the code you posted Andy, you're mostly controlling the placement of the legend (top, bottom, etc.).
What I need to do is have the height and width of my legen change based on the number of series and the length of the series names. Picking that information up isn't my problem (the LEN formula isn't exactly a mystery and I already make use of some code to pick up the series count).
What I'm not sure of is how to translate that into values for height and length. Once I have that I've already used the recorder to get the code to change height and width
