How do we set the position of an Excel chart from C#?

I am trying to generate an Excel chart from C#. Chart is generated just find but it allways appears at the center of the screen. How can I set the position of the chart?

Thanks.

My code looks like this:

Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel._Workbook ebook = (Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel._Workbook)etablo.Workbooks.Add(true);

Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel._Worksheet esheet = (Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel._Worksheet)ebook.ActiveSheet;

_Chart grafik1 = (Chart)ebook.Charts.Add(Type.Missing, Type.Missing, Type.Missing, Type.Missing);

/* Add Data From Cells here */
/* Then */
grafik1.Location(XlChartLocation.xlLocationAsObject, esheet.Name);

after you generate a chart, you can handle chart as a shape object:

for example:

esheet.Shapes.Item("Chart 1").Top = 100;
esheet.Shapes.Item("Chart 1").Left = 250;


// or you can handle shape by index - indexes start from 1 so esheet.Shapes.Item(1).Top

i think, you would like to set position right the relevating cells, for example:

esheet.Shapes.Item("Chart 1").Top = (float)(double)esheet.get_Range("A5","A6").Top;

so ...i hope this will help :)
