A ChartObject object specifying a chart on the chart sheet.

Use the Chart property to get access to the chart located on the current chart sheet and specify its settings: select chart data (ChartObject.SelectData, ChartObject.Series), change the chart type (ChartObject.ChangeType), modify the chart layout (ChartObject.PlotArea, ChartObject.PrimaryAxes, ChartObject.SecondaryAxes, ChartObject.Legend, ChartObject.Title) and adjust the chart appearance (ChartObject.Style, ChartObject.Views, ChartObject.View3D).
Worksheet worksheet = workbook.Worksheets["chartTask2"];
// Create an empty chart sheet of the specified type.
ChartSheet chartSheet = workbook.ChartSheets.Add(ChartType.BarFullStacked);
// Access a chart on the chart sheet.
ChartObject chart = chartSheet.Chart;
// Select chart data.
chart.SelectData(worksheet["B3:C8"], ChartDataDirection.Row);
// Display the chart title.
chart.Title.Visible = true;
chart.Title.SetReference(worksheet["B1"]);
// Change the legend position.
chart.Legend.Position = LegendPosition.Bottom;
// Hide the category axis.
chart.PrimaryAxes[0].Visible = false;
// Set the value axis' major unit.
chart.PrimaryAxes[1].MajorUnit = 0.2;
workbook.ChartSheets.ActiveChartSheet = chartSheet;
Dim worksheet As Worksheet = workbook.Worksheets("chartTask2")
' Create an empty chart sheet of the specified type.
Dim chartSheet As ChartSheet = workbook.ChartSheets.Add(ChartType.BarFullStacked)
' Access a chart on the chart sheet.
