Good evening all,

Here is a weird question: I have created a chart from given source
points but I need to extract some of the data from this chart to make
an approximation on other data. Is there any way to write a VBA script
or simply select a command that allows you to extrapolate chart data
and place the desired extrapolated data into destination cells?

Thanks for the help
Tim

This article from Microsoft's Knowledge Base has a macro to extract all the
data from a chart. You could use it, then remove the data you don't care
about:

Though if you already have the data, this might be redundant.

Thank you very much for the help.

I am not sure how that article helps you since it doesn't address the issue
of extrapolating data.
