Reset default Chart naming

Hi,
When I create a chart, it's 'name' for the first one is "Chart 1", the next is called "Chart 2". If I delete "Chart 2" and create another one, it'll be called "Chart 3". What do I have to do after deleting Chart 2 to reset the naming so that the next one I create will be called Chart 2?

As I type I realise this might sound like a classic case of "why on earth does it matter?", but I'm creating what will become a complex template for something and would like "slot" 1 to match up with chart 1 and so on....

Hope this makes sense. Any assistance gratefully received.

thanks
Lee

Did you know Excel offers Filter by Selection?
Add the AutoFilter icon to the Quick Access Toolbar. Select a cell containing Apple, click AutoFilter, and you will get all rows with Apple
You can't, other than restarting the workbook, I suspect, but you can always just rename them afterwards.

You know what? I probably should have tried to close and re-open before posting and see if that did the trick. That basically solves the issue for me, so thanks very much.

:rolleyes:
