I have a chart that I need to get rid of as part of my code. I recorded this part of the macro and ended up with the following code

Code:
ActiveChart.Location Where:=xlLocationAsNewSheet, Name:="Graph-State-KU"
ActiveChart.CopyPicture
ActiveChart.Parent.Delete
ActiveChart.Pictures.Paste.Select

ActiveChart.Parent.Delete is where I get the error

Simple, right? It's what the macro recorder gave me, it's what everyone posts on the web when deleting a graph. But it always gives me the same error: "Object doesn't support this property or method"

The chart is in a sheet by itself, so I can't use activechart.delete because that deletes the entire sheet, not just the chart. Any ideas?

Select a formatted range. Double-click the Format Painter (left side of Home tab). You can paste formatting multiple times. Esc to stop

... and why do you want to delete a chart from a chart sheet and NOT the chart sheet?
