Range Empty for Dynamic Chart VBA





.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ height:90px;width:728px;box-sizing:border-box;
}







-1















I'm trying to create a dynamic sourcedata on a chart in VBA as this can vary depending on the data being pulled in via a macro. So far I have:



Set Rng = Sheets("Mapping Tables").Range("J13", Sheets("Mapping Tables").Range("J13").End(xlDown).End(xlToRight)).Select

Worksheets("Vintage").Charts("Vintage_1").SetSourceData Rng, PlotBy:=xlColumns


However, when I step through the code in the set range command, my cells are being selected. When I run through the SetSourceData step nothing happens. When I hover over the Rng variable it says = nothing.



I've never really done dynamic charts before but I cannot understand why my range equals nothing when my range is being selected.



Thanks in advance.

            actually the first line should give you an error, if I'm not mistaken. You cannot set a range to a ".select" statement.
            Try deleting the ".select" at the end



            Edit: when you're defining a continuous range (e.g. a table), you can use something cleaner:



            set Rng = Sheets("Mapping Tables").Range("J13").CurrentRegion

            • Thanks, I've not used currentregion before, however I still can't seem to get my chart to update based on that range, just steps through the code but with no action (no error either).
