organization chart

[Guest]

I am unable to set the Text in each Diagram Node of an organization chart
using Excel 2003 VBA code.

I have tried the Excel VBA Help example that accompanies the TextShape
Property, and this too fails with error 1004, "Unable to set the Text
property of the Characters class".

I tried this and it seems to work:

Public Sub Temp1()
Sheets("Sheet1").Shapes("Rectangle 2").Select
Selection.Font.Size = 25
End Sub

I have a rectangle with text in it call "Rectangle 2".
For some reason this doesn't seem to work in a "with block".

I can get it to work for text boxes, but not for Org Charts.

Here is the MS Excel VBA Help article and example that I have tried that
illustrates the problem:

TextShape Property
See AlsoApplies ToExampleSpecificsReturns a Shape object representing the
shape of the text box associated with a diagram node.

expression.TextShape
expression Required. An expression that returns one of the objects in the
Applies To list.

Example
The following example adds child nodes to a parent node, and displays text
in the parent node indicating the number of child nodes created.

Sub CountChildNodes()

Dim nodRoot As DiagramNode
Dim shDiagram As Shape
Dim intCount As Integer
Dim shText As Shape

Set shDiagram = ActiveSheet.Shapes.AddDiagram _
(Type:=msoDiagramRadial, Left:=10, Top:=15, _
Width:=400, Height:=475)
Set nodRoot = shDiagram.DiagramNode.Children.AddNode

' Add 3 child nodes to the root node.
For intCount = 1 To 3
nodRoot.Children.AddNode
Next

' Change text in node.
For intCount = 1 To 4
Set shText = shDiagram.DiagramNode.Children.Item(1).TextShape
shText.TextFrame.Characters.Text = Str(intcount)
Next intCount

End Sub
