variable range graph Closed

Question

Hello,
I am trying to make a macro in excel that makes graphs from a variable range.  This is what I have so far and I don't know why it does work.


Sub Macro1()
'
' Macro1 Macro
'

'
    Range("A5").Select
   Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlDown)).Select
      n = Range("A5", Range("A5").End(xlDown)).Count
    Range("D5").Activate
f = Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlDown)).Select
    ActiveSheet.Shapes.AddChart.Select
    ActiveChart.SetSourceData Source:=Range(n, f)       'it fails here
    ActiveChart.ChartType = xlXYScatterSmoothNoMarkers
End Sub


I've tried many different things and I don't know how to put in a range that will select to the last non empty cell in a column. 
Thank you so much for your help.

Hi rukid
Instead of Range(n, f) use Range("A5:D" & n)

Hey thank you for the reply,
I tried what you suggested but it does not work as the columns that the data are in are not from a through d continuously, they are in a,d,f,h,j do you know of a remedy for this?  Thank you again.

The other issue that I just noticed is that if I change the length of the data meaning make the columns have more or less data, the macro does not change the range to encompass the whole column. Thanks for any help.
