    How to get column and row information from charted data

    In a chart, series are specified like:
    =SERIES[ (series_name) , (X-values) , (Y-values) , (plot_order) ].
    Range references in a SERIES formula are always absolute and always contain a worksheet name. If you have defined named ranges then the series formula can contain a named range in place of a range.

    =SERIES('g2'!$G$36,'g2'!$A$37:$A$71,'g2'!$G$37:$G$71,7)
    If I want to write VBA code that knows that my data starts on row 37 or that the Y values are in column G (numerically=7), how do I pull that information?
    Is there a way?

    is probably a good starting point but honestly I am having a terrible time deciphering it as I am a sporadic VBA user.

    Any hints?

    Hello Shellig,

    It is difficult to answer a question that hasn't been asked. What is it you want to achieve?

    Sincerely,
    Leith Ross

    This is the real question I am trying to solve.
    I was trying to break down the steps in this question.
    The graphed data is variable ranges depending on whether we are interested in 6 months, 1 week, etc.
    I need to know what column and row I started graphing data in to apply a macro to color the data points based on the values in another column.
    Thanks!
    Shelli
