Hi,

I have a basic piece of vba which changes the type of chart from a line chart to a column chart:

Code:
Sub COLUMN_CHART()
'
    ActiveChart.ChartArea.Select
    ActiveChart.ChartType = xlColumnClustered
End Sub

The problem i am having is that if this is pressed its works fine. But, if i press it again i get run time error 91 coming up. My question is, once the code has run and changed the chart, if the button is pressed again, how i can get either a message to come up to say this chart is already selected OR do nothing?
Due to formatting reasons, Option button isnt possible.

Please help!

Links? Where??
If Excel says you have links but you can't find them, go to Formulas, Name Manager. Look for old links to dead workbooks & delete.
By the way, i know not pressing the button again is the best option but im not the person who will be using this workbook!
