why doesn't this work?#)$*#)!?
Charts("Pegged Prices - All Comps").SeriesCollection.Add Source:= _
Worksheets("Comps Prices").Range(Cells(FirstDateRow, 2), Cells(LastDateRow, 2))
something with my "Cells"... ??
i had
Charts("Pegged Prices - All Comps").SeriesCollection.Add Source:= "Comps Prices!R" & FirstDateRow & "C2:R" & LastDateRow & "C2"
which didn't work, but when the source was from "Comps" (later renamed to "Comps Prices" it did work.
aah! evil chart objects!

Stephanie,
The reason why this doesn't work is that, just like the Range method, the Cells method also requires the worksheet qualifier if the range (cell) is not on the active worksheet.
An easy way to qualify both the Range and Cells methods is to use the With statement:
With Worksheets("Comps Prices")
Charts("Pegged Prices - All Comps").SeriesCollection.Add Source:= _
.Range(.Cells(FirstDateRow, 2), .Cells(LastDateRow, 2))
End With
and not that all the periods (".") are necessary.
Happy charting.
Damon
