Hi,

I encountered problem when using code to copy&paste charts as enhanced metafile from one sheet to another. Programme is not responding for quite long time then it diplays 1004 error. I suppose problem is in the line:

ActiveSheet.PasteSpecial Format:="Picture (Enhanced Metafile)", Link:=False, DisplayAsIcon:=False

Thanks for suggestions.

Code:
Sub createTables()
Workbooks("AAA.xlsm").Worksheets("AA").Activate
    For i = 1 To 3
Workbooks("AAA.xlsm").Worksheets("AA").Activate
Workbooks("AAA.xlsm").Worksheets("AA").Range("A3").Value = i
Workbooks("AAA.xlsm").Worksheets("AA").Calculate
Workbooks("AAA.xlsm").Worksheets("AA").ChartObjects("Chart 1").CopyPicture Appearance:=xlScreen, Format:=xlPicture
        
Workbooks("BBB.xlsx").Worksheets(i).Activate
Workbooks("BBB.xlsx").Worksheets(i).Range("B2").Select
ActiveSheet.PasteSpecial Format:="Picture (Enhanced Metafile)", Link:=False, DisplayAsIcon:=False

    Next i
End Sub
