Generating multiple charts in one Excel sheet gives compilation error?

Asked by cleany in Active Server Pages (ASP), Microsoft Excel Spreadsheet Software

Tags: Visual Basic

I want to generate more than 1 chart on an Excel sheet.
I managed to make this work for 1 chart per sheet with a different code and found this code for multiple charts.

The problem is, that I get a compilation error on line 19. It says: compilation error: Expected statement.
line19 is:
MyExcelChart.ActiveChart.SetSourceData Source:=MyExcelChart.Sheets("Sheet1").Range(MyRange), PlotBy:=xlColumns

anyone knows how to solve this?Start Free Trial
