Syntax

expression.Source

expression   A variable that represents a PublishObject object.

Remarks

If the SourceType property is set to xlSourceRange, this property returns a range, which can be a defined name. If the SourceType property is set to xlSourceChart, xlSourcePivotTable, or xlSourceQuery, this property returns the name of the object, such as a chart name, a PivotTable report name, or a query table name.

Example

This example determines the unique name of the first chart (in the first workbook) saved as a Web page, and then it sets the Boolean variable blnChartFound to True. If no items in the document have been saved as Chart components, blnChartFound is False.

  blnChartFound = False
For Each objPO In Workbooks(1).PublishObjects
    If objPO.SourceType = xlSourceChart Then
        strFirstPO = objPO.Source
        blnChartFound = True
        Exit For
    End If
Next objPO
