Methods

	Name	Description
	ApplyChartTemplate	Applies a standard or custom chart type to a chart.
	ApplyCustomType	Applies a standard or custom chart type to a chart.
	ApplyDataLabels	Applies data labels to all the series in a chart.
	ApplyLayout	Applies the layouts shown in the ribbon.
	AreaGroups	On a 2-D chart, returns an object that represents either a single area chart group (a ChartGroup object) or a collection of the area chart groups (a ChartGroups collection).
	AutoFormat	This API supports the Visual Studio Tools for Office infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code.
	Axes	Gets an object that either represents a single axis or a collection of axes on the chart.
	BarGroups	On a 2-D chart, returns an object that represents either a single bar chart group (a ChartGroup object) or a collection of the bar chart groups (a ChartGroups collection).
	ChartWizard	Modifies the properties of the given chart. You can use this method to quickly format a chart without setting all the individual properties. This method is non-interactive, and it changes only the specified properties.
	ClearToMatchStyle	Clears the chart elements formatting to automatic.
	ColumnGroups	On a 2-D chart, returns an object that represents either a single column chart group (a ChartGroup object) or a collection of the column chart groups (a ChartGroups collection).
	Copy	Not supported for this object.
	CopyPicture	Copies the selected object to the Clipboard as a picture.
	Delete	Deletes the object.
	DoughnutGroups	On a 2-D chart, returns an object that represents either a single doughnut chart group (a ChartGroup object) or a collection of the doughnut chart groups (a ChartGroups collection).
	Export	Exports the chart in a graphic format. This method returns a Boolean value indicating whether the export was successful.
	GetChartElement	Returns information about the chart element at specified X and Y coordinates. This method is unusual in that you specify values for only the first two arguments. Microsoft Word fills in the other arguments, and your code should examine those values when the method returns.
	LineGroups	On a 2-D chart, returns an object that represents either a single line chart group (a ChartGroup object) or a collection of the line chart groups (a ChartGroups collection).
	Paste	Pastes chart data from the Clipboard into the specified chart.

	RadarGroups	On a 2-D chart, returns an object that represents either a single radar chart group (a ChartGroup object) or a collection of the radar chart groups (a ChartGroups collection).
	Refresh	Causes the specified chart to be redrawn immediately.
	SaveChartTemplate	Saves a custom chart template to the list of available chart templates.
	Select	Selects the object.
	SeriesCollection	Returns an Object that represents all the series in the chart.
	SetBackgroundPicture	Sets the background graphic for a chart.
	SetDefaultChart	Specifies the name of the chart template that Microsoft Word uses when creating new charts.
	SetElement	Sets chart elements on a chart. Read/write.
