Hi Ingrid,
I wrote the below java code to insert a new chart from which i'll later
extract the XChartDocument instance.
the below java code works ok . however i noticed a couple of things :

1) i need to specify a XCellRange and get the CellRangeAddress . for this i
used :
 XCellRange myRange = oRange.getCellRangeByName("A1:E1740");
        XCellRangeAddressable oRangeAddr = (XCellRangeAddressable)
            UnoRuntime.queryInterface(XCellRangeAddressable.class, myRange);
        CellRangeAddress myAddr = oRangeAddr.getRangeAddress();
is there a way to format this XCellRange Object so i can specify min  , max
and step range for both x and y axis ?

2) i got a chart drawn even though i didn't specified the chart type in
below java code .i suppose there is a default charttype in chart2 module
that is used if no other charttype is specified . what is the default
charttype for chart2 module ?

3) for chart module i know there are the following charttype services :
                "com.sun.star.chart.LineDiagram",
                "com.sun.star.chart.BarDiagram",
                "com.sun.star.chart.PieDiagram",
                "com.sun.star.chart.NetDiagram",
                "com.sun.star.chart.XYDiagram",
                "com.sun.star.chart.StockDiagram",
                "com.sun.star.chart.AreaDiagram"
what are the corresponding charttype services for chart2 module ? i'm
specially interested in CandleStick & Line chart type from chart2 module.

thanks for your patience & further help.

code :

XSpreadsheet xSheet = //here i get an instance of my XSpreadsheet;
        
        // insert new chart.
        // get the CellRange which holds the data for the chart and its
RangeAddress
        // get the TableChartSupplier from the sheet and then the
TableCharts from it.
        // add a new chart based on the data to the TableCharts.
                
        Rectangle oRect = new Rectangle();
        oRect.X = 500;
        oRect.Y = 3000;
        oRect.Width = 25000;
        oRect.Height = 11000;
        
        XCellRange oRange = (XCellRange)UnoRuntime.queryInterface(
            XCellRange.class, xSheet);
        XCellRange myRange = oRange.getCellRangeByName("A1:E1740");
        XCellRangeAddressable oRangeAddr = (XCellRangeAddressable)
            UnoRuntime.queryInterface(XCellRangeAddressable.class, myRange);
        CellRangeAddress myAddr = oRangeAddr.getRangeAddress();
        
        CellRangeAddress[] oAddr = new CellRangeAddress[1];
        oAddr[0] = myAddr;
        XTableChartsSupplier oSupp =
(XTableChartsSupplier)UnoRuntime.queryInterface(
            XTableChartsSupplier.class, xSheet);
        
        XTableChart oChart = null;
        
        System.out.println("Insert new Chart");
        
        XTableCharts oCharts = oSupp.getCharts();
        oCharts.addNewByName("combined chart", oRect, oAddr, true, true);
