How to enumerate Custom Chart Types in VB?
I am writing an application to export data to Graphs in PowerPoint.
As part of this I need to produce a drop-down list of the user's custom chart types. The are the types that are stored in the file GRUSRGAL.GRA Does anyone know how to find and list the Graph custom chart types using VB code? I tried a google search on various terms but could not find anything that showed me how to list them. (Plenty of pages showing me how to add them or apply them - but not to find out what they were.) Any help greatly appreciated.

Finally had some time to poke at this and you're right, it's not an easy thing to find (bad enough trying to find out how to APPLY a custom chart type from the help files). Since MSGraph is quite similar to Excel's charting, I'd ask this same question in one of the Excel programming groups. ----------------------------------------- Steve Rindsberg, PPT MVP PPT FAQ: www.pptfaq.com PPTools: www.pptools.com ================================================
