I'm trying to select all charts(8) on 9 worksheets and change the number format on the axis based on a selection of a dropdown box value.

I can't seem to get the syntax right for activating the chart and changing the format

Sub LoopCharts()

Set myshapes = Worksheets("Trend").ChartObjects
For Each shp In myshapes

' MsgBox shp.Name
If shp.Name = "Chart 18" Then

shp.Select

With myshapes(shp).Axes(xlCategory)

Selection.Axes(xlValue).Select
Selection.TickLabels.NumberFormat = "$#,##0.00_);[Red]($#,##0.00)"
ActiveWindow.Visible = False

End With

End If
Next

End Sub
 

Excel Facts

Which came first: VisiCalc or Lotus 1-2-3?
Dan Bricklin and Bob Frankston debuted VisiCalc in 1979 as a Visible Calculator. Lotus 1-2-3 debuted in the early 1980's, from Mitch Kapor.
