    Identical Chart numbers on same worksheet

    I have a work sheet that has four charts. In trying to write a macro to change the range of the axes I found that two of the charts have the same "Chart" number. When I executed the macro, Excel choose the wrong "Chart2". How is this possible? I have experienced this more than once. I'm on a Mac using Office 2011.

    rename the charts to be distinct?
    excel allows charts to have the same name

    Hi retiredjoe,

    Firstly you have to change the chart number.
    The chart number should be distinct.

    I was able to create another chart that was given a unique chart number, and solve my immediate problem. You mention that i should change the chart number. Not sure how to do that, any suggestions?
    Thanks for your reply.
