Error 1004 - unable to set the hastitle property of the axis class

I have to create a large number of graphs from an excel dataset.
I am successful for about 2/3 of the dataset. I get a Runtime Error 1004:
Unable to set the HasTitle property of the axis class.

The total amount of datasets is 50
The maximum amount of graphs is about 27

Jim and Henri,

I also had the "No more new fonts may be applied in this workbook" error
message when producing a lot of graphs in one Excel file and found this link
from Microsoft.

I followed the directions and did the macro fix and the registry fix, which
did fix the problem that I had with the error message.

However....the problem now is that my new Excel files and any graphs that I
use from a new Excel file in another application (Powerpoint, Word) are VERY
large. For example, a Powerpoint file I had before the "fix" was ~6MB, and
now it's 28MB with new graphs substituted.

My question is this: How do I un-do the macro fix and registry fix that I
did earlier following the Microsoft instructions? That error probably
happened for 1 of every 20 Excel files that I have, and I'd much prefer to
deal with that than the problem that I'm having now.

Thanks for any help!

How were you inserting the charts, and how are you doing it now?

If you paste a chart into PowerPoint, you really are pasting a copy of the
entire workbook. Paste in two charts, that's two copies of the workbook.
Etc.

Jon, That's very helpful to know. I hadn't realized it.
Do you know how I can un-do what I did to fix the problems in the first
place? I would prefer that things returned back to 'normal,' and I could
just not copy and paste so many charts!
Thank you.
 
J

Jon Peltier

I doubt the registry fix is causing your problem. I wonder if you used to
insert a picture of the chart or a link to the chart, and now you're
inserting the entire workbook.

Jon,
I've always cut and pasted the charts the same way, so I don't think the
problem has anything to do with a change in that procedure. I changed the
registry and wrote a macro at the same time to try and get rid of the
problem, and noticed my problems w/ file size immediately after. Could my
problem have to do with the macro? If it's a possibility, how do I un-do a
macro?
Thanks again for your help.

Jon Peltier

The problem could relate to the macro, if it doesn't reproduce the exact
technique you used to use manually.

Amber H

So, do you know how I could un-do the macro? I don't use macros (ever), and
I just followed the instructions for this particular macro from the microsoft
website to fix the problem that I was having.
 
J

Jon Peltier

Unless the programmer put in something specific for undoing a macro (which
is unlikely), you would have to manually undo each of the changes the macro
made, or rebuild the chart, or go to the archived version of the file
(archives are also unlikely, in my experience).
