AutoLinePlot Object
The AutoLinePlot object controls the settings for line/scatter plots, 2D step plots, and polar plots. Line/scatter plots, step plots, and polar plots do not use all of the methods and properties of the AutoLinePlot object. When a method or property is not used by all plot types, the plots used are listed in parentheses.
Derived from: AutoPlot object (All methods and properties of AutoPlot apply to this object.)

Sub Main
'Declares GrapherApp as an object
Dim GrapherApp As Object
'Creates an instance of the Grapher Application
'object and assigns it to the variable named "GrapherApp"
Set GrapherApp = CreateObject("Grapher.Application")

'Declares Plot as an object
Dim Plot As Object
'Creates a plot document in Grapher and
'assigns it to the variable named "Plot"

'Declares Shapes as an object

'Declares LineGraph as an object
Dim LineGraph As Object
'Creates a graph and assigns it to the
