This is a Mac XL newsgroup, so for a XL2007 problem, you'd do better to
post in
microsoft.public.excel.charting
Of course, XL98 is a Mac product, so I'm not sure you don't mean XL04.
In any case, you'd also probably get a better answer if you post
relevant sections of your code, along with explaining what "get an
error" means (i.e., which error(s)).
In general, one can select the charts using
ActiveSheet.ChartObjects("Chart 1").Select
or, if the chart is on its own sheet,
Sheets("Chart1").Select
