---+ .CHART INITIALIZE

This subroutine is called to initialize or reinitialize a chart spec. The newly initialized chart spec become the "current" chart.

*&lt;chart_type&gt;* must be a valid chart type. The valid values for *&lt;chart_type&gt;* are: PieChart. Passing this parameter is required.

*&lt;chart_spec_name&gt;* is the name which uniquely identifies the chart spec which is to be initialized. The name may be up to 30 characters in length. Passing this parameter is optional.

If the *&lt;chart_spec_name&gt;* parameter __is not passed__, then an "unnamed" chart is initialized. If an "unnamed" chart has been previously initialized, then the previously initialized "unnamed" chart is reinitialized clearing all previously set values.

If the *&lt;chart_spec_name&gt;* parameter __is passed__, then a chart with the specified name is initialized. If a chart with the specified name has been previously initialized, then the previously initialized chart is reinitialized clearing all previously set values.

This subroutine sets a result value in the corresponding results Token field.
