I have approx 60 sheet tab each with a chart for each branch in the company. Is it possible to name the charts to equal the sheet tab? There is also a cell that contains the branch number in A33 on each sheet. I could use that reference as well.

What does custom number format of ;;; mean?
Three semi-colons will hide the value in the cell. Although most people use white font instead.
Hi Rick,

I have beeen playing around with this macro:
It requires that there is only one chart per sheet and each sheet has a chart.
Please try it on a document copy.

Code:
Sub ChartRename()
 
Dim ws As Worksheet
 
For Each ws In ThisWorkbook.Worksheets
ws.Activate
ActiveSheet.ChartObjects.Select
N = ActiveSheet.ChartObjects.Count
ChrtName = ActiveSheet.ChartObjects(N).Name
ActiveSheet.ChartObjects(ChrtName).Name = ws.Name
 
Next
End Sub

Thanks. There are other sheets in the wb and a few have multiple charts. The majority of the wb has one chart on each sheet. Is it possible to modify the code to exclude sheet9,7 and 21?

I ran the code and it renamed the charts as needed then on the sheet without a chart it crashed..... as expected. I then just fixed a couple of chart names...... ALL IS WELL.....
