I can't repro this, but I still can see an issue here. Setting the Left of the shape to be equal to the Left of the cell, and also the Width to the same numbers results in a chart that is shifted the 5.x pixels to the right. As Bob mentioned, it has everything to do with the width of the frame that is placed around the chart when you select it... This is bizarre… I can’t repro this, but I still can see an issue here.

If you do activesheet.shapes("Chart 1").width = 310 then ?activesheet.shapes("Chart 1").width you get 310! Could it be something to do with that extr border that is shown when you select the chart?

If you do

activesheet.shapes(“Chart 1″).width = 310

then

?activesheet.shapes(“Chart 1″).width

you get 310!

Left also seems to be off. Specifically, if you retrieve the Left property of a cell and then set the left property of the chart to match, the chart shows up about 5 pixels right of the left cell border. 5.64721679687 pixels, to be precise.
