Charts in Excel 2007 Just Check the attached sheet and run it in Excel 2003, 2007 & 2010 beta. Double clicking on any of the charts in 2007 will crash Excel. Uncomment the lines commented in the sheet code and you will find that it runs fine in Excel 2007 too.

Excel crashing
hi hivishy
I suspect that an event may be triggered whilst another event is being actioned.
I suggest the following:
At each entry point to an event, put: Application.enableevents = false
At each exit point, put: Application.enableevents = true

Charts in Excel 2003, 2007 and 2010 beta
No. This didn't work.
Just have a look at the following code. This code works fine in Excel 2003 and 2010 beta version but crashes in 2007. To avoid this you need to uncomment the lines in the following code (in bold below). Based on this I reached the conclusion that at the end of the chart event if you try to activate/select anything other than the chart it will crash in Excel 2007.
Public WithEvents Cht1 As Chart
Public WithEvents Cht2 As Chart
Public Sub InitCharts()
Set Cht1 = shtChart.ChartObjects(1).Chart
Set Cht2 = shtChart.ChartObjects(2).Chart
End Sub
Private Sub cht1_BeforeDoubleClick(ByVal ElementID As Long, ByVal Arg1 As Long, ByVal Arg2 As Long, Cancel As Boolean)
Cancel = True
shtChart.Range("A1").Select
'Cht2.Parent.Select 'Uncomment this in 2007
End Sub
Private Sub Cht2_BeforeDoubleClick(ByVal ElementID As Long, ByVal Arg1 As Long, ByVal Arg2 As Long, Cancel As Boolean)
Cancel = True
shtChart.Range("A1").Select
'Cht1.Parent.Select 'Uncomment this in 2007
End Sub
Private Sub Worksheet_Activate()
Call shtChart.InitCharts
End Sub

Chart problem - crashing Excel
Did u try uncommenting the commented lines ? Did u try running this example sheet in Excel 2003 or Excel 2010 beta version ?
There are four charts visible at a time on the sheet. Double clicking on any of the charts will filter (using filters) the data for it (data on another sheet) and show its data and hide the chart. Same with other charts as well.
But another thing that I observed with filters (VBA) is that when you execute filters the focus actually shift to the sheet on which the filter is being applied.
Dont you find this interesting ?
Chart Problem
Just paste the code in the Sheet module. In the same sheet create 2 charts based on any data and try clicking on the charts. This would raise those events that I talked about in my post. In my post sheet name is shtChart.
