Amending Chart Location And Size


I have craeted a chart in VBA, which sits in the middle of the page . I have attempted to move it to a new location with the following code


ActiveChart.Parent. Name = "MyChart"

ActiveSheet.ChartObjects("MyChart").IncrementLeft -237.75
ActiveSheet.ChartObjects("MyChart").IncrementTop 32.25
ActiveSheet.ChartObjects("MyChart").ScaleHeight 0.96, msoFalse, msoScaleFromTopLeft
ActiveSheet.ChartObjects("MyChart").ScaleWidth 1.17, msoFalse, msoScaleFromTopLeft

which I adapted from a recorded macro, but which fails in execution, error message indicates that the Object does not support the property or Method.

Specify Size And Location On Screen Of Notepad Opened By VBA?
I'm using this code to open a text file. Is there a method to specify the size and location of the window that opens with the textfile?

I'm sure there may be a better method to open the textfile, so feel free to tell me how bad this code is.

Changing Chart Location
Sub autograph()
Dim x As Long, t As Long, y As Long, z As Long
y = 3
z = 5
x = 4
While x < 609
With Worksheets("cabernet (2)")
t = Cells(x, 1).Value
Charts.Add
ActiveChart.ChartType = xlLineMarkers
ActiveChart.SetSourceData Source:=Sheets("cabernet (2)").Range("B" & y & ":H" & z), PlotBy:=xlRows
ActiveChart.Location where:=xlLocationAsObject, Name:="Cabernet (2)"
ActiveWindow.Visible = False
ActiveChart.HasTitle = True
ActiveChart.charttitle.Text = " " & t
Windows("complete Favorite Genes.xls").Activate
y = y + 3
z = z + 3
x = x + 3
End With
Wend
End Sub

This time, however, instead of having a slight idea of what I need to do, I don't have the slightest of where to start. I need to move all of these charts into another sheet, sheet1, and i'd like to offset them or do something so that they aren't all right on top of each other. I'd be more specific but I don't really know exactly what you can or can't do.

Chart Size
I am having some problems with some charts that are being created via VBA.
If I create the chart at 1600 x 1200 screen resolution at 100% zoom then my chart is fine but if I am at a different level of zoom or a different screen resolution the code for position the top and left and width and height of the plot area does not work as expected.

I have the outside of the chart set at 600 wide by 600 tall and no matter what resolution i'm in it seems that it always stays this way. I just seems the plot area and the legend move around.

Source Location/Address Of Series In Graph/Chart
Looking for code that returns the cell address of a series in a pre-existing graph. I have a graph that already has Source Data manually assigned to it. Is there a way to find just the cell values or location of a single Series in a SeriesCollection object? I know that in order to assign a series of data to a Series object, you do something like this:

ActiveChart.SeriesCollection(1).Values = Worksheets("My Worksheet").Range("A1:F1")

The issue I am tackling with is a graph that already has preexisting data in the Series object, and I just need a quick and easy way to find the address of this data set.

Auto Size Dynamic Changing Chart
I have created a dynamic chart in excel where either the number of Series or the number of Data Points will change dependent on user inputs in the model. I've done this using the Offset Function in a Defined Name in Excel and dropped this Defined Name into vba code using ActiveChart.SetSourceData.

Anyway, all works fine, pulling the correct data, etc. What doesn't work is the final appearence of the chart. The chart has a Legend placed at the bottom of the chart, as standard, unless there is only one Series, when I remove the legend altogether. Whilst the legend works fine, the Plot Area of the chart doesn't update automatically to accomodate the changing size / existence of the Legend. Does anybody know how to do this? I tried using hieght, etc properties, but I don't know how to make them variable

Create Macro To Chart Data With Location As Object In Active Sheet
I have been trying to create a macro in excel to chart a selection of data and to output the chart on the active sheet where the data was taken (as opposed to a named sheet). So basically, I have about 300 worksheets with data, and I would like to have a button on each page that automatically charts that data when clicked, and outputs the chart to the page where the macro was clicked. However, I have not been able to figure out a relative reference that will allow me to make the LocationasObject reference simply the ActiveSheet as opposed to a specifically named sheet. See my code below, which references an output to a worksheet called "Charts". Right now, all of my charts are outputting to the sheet called "Charts", as opposed to the active sheet.

Sub ConsDiscChart()
ActiveCell.Offset(29, 11).Range("A1").Select
Selection.End(xlToLeft).Select
Selection.End(xlToLeft).Select
Selection.End(xlToLeft).Select
Selection.End(xlToLeft).Select
Selection.End(xlToLeft).Select
Selection.End(xlToLeft).Select
Selection.End(xlUp).Select
Selection.End(xlUp).Select
Selection.End(xlUp).Select
Selection.End(xlUp).Select
Selection.End(xlUp).Select
Selection.End(xlUp).Select
Selection.End(xlDown).Select
ActiveCell.Offset(0, 1).Range("A1:B1").Select
Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlDown)).Select
ActiveCell.Offset(0, -1).Range("A1:C24").Select
Charts.Add
ActiveChart.ChartType = xlLineMarkers
ActiveChart.Location Where:=xlLocationAsObject, Name:="Charts"
With ActiveChart
.HasTitle = False
.Axes(xlCategory, xlPrimary).HasTitle = False
.Axes(xlValue, xlPrimary).HasTitle = False

Macro Copying & Pasting Chart Affects Its Size
I have a macro that takes a worksheet and copies it to another workbook. It works, but the graph that is contained in the new worksheet ends up a little screwy; for instance, the Plot Area is larger than it should be (height-wise along the screen), and the chart's legend isn't in the exact same place as in the original chart.

ThisWorkbook.Worksheets(tempSheet).Copy After:=wb.ActiveSheet 'before:=ThisWorkbook.Sheets(1)

Amending Data To Hours And Minutes
I am using Excel 2003 and I have two columns of data, one column shows how much work for a particular worktype should be done in an hour and the second column shows what I’m expected to get in over the next month. I have added a third column to show how long it would take to complete the expected work.

What I would like that third column to show the data in hours and minutes rather than a percentage of 100, so on a linked TAB on the main sheet it will show clearly as a time so staff hours can be allocate to a worktype. Is this simple to do. I have attached an example workbook.

Odd Chart: Combine Data From Multiple Worksheets And Make A Chart
I am trying to combine data from multiple worksheets and make a chart. I have about 200 keywords in every worksheet (about 50), and some of them repeat themselves through worksheets and some don't. For every keyword, I have an associated value in the next column that I want to portray over time (each worksheet is for a different period).

So what I need to figure out is how to be able to pick any 10 keywords from the worksheets and put them in a line chart where I can see the associated value for each period for every worksheet so I can compare my keywords' efficiency. The tricky part is that some worksheets do not contain the keyword and other worksheets contain the keyword in a different cell than the previous wsheet.

Combine (Overlay) Bubble Chart & Point Scatter Chart
I would like combine (overlay) a bubble chart with a connected point scatter chart. I understand that, without VBA, this is not possible. However, I understand that, by using VBA, the markers of a scatter chart can be configured as circles with their size proportional to values in a specified column. This pseudo-bubble chart can then easily be combined with a connected point scatter chart.

My question is: does anyone have any VBA code to share that shows how to configure a scatter chart as the type of pseudo-bubble chart described above.

Chart Making- Chart With 3 Data Series
I have a chart with 3 data series. The series are located in columns A, B and C respectively. Series I is a general number anywhere from 0 to 100,000. Series 2 is also a number, but is is devided by series 1. So, if series 1 was 100,000 then series two would be 25,000/100,000 which is 0.25. Series three will always be numerator of series 2 or 25,000 in this example. The numerator, or the 25,000 will never change, so, in my example, series three will be a straight line across the chart because it is always 25,000.

In my example, the .25 is plotted on the left value axes, and series one is plotted on the right value acccess (secondary axis). Series three is just a line in the middle.

My problem is that sometimes the line, series 3, doesn't match the values in both the right and left values axes. So, if series one is 48,000, then series two would be 48,000/48,000 = 1, and series three would be 48000 - the straight line. The third series should be a line touching the 48,000 on the right and the number 1 on the left. It does touch the 48000 on the left, but is below the number 1 on the left.

Convert Scatter Chart To Bubble Chart

My question is: does anyone have VBA code to share that will convert a scatter chart series (x,y data in 2 columns) to a bubble-style chart (bubble radius in 3rd column)?

Bar Chart And Overlaying Scatter Chart
I'll attempt to explain what I'm hoping to do. I have a column of data that I want to plot out into a chart. For example the data points might run from -1.50 to 2.5.

Let's say there are 20 data points in the column and they are spaced thruout the range shown above. They tend to cluster amoung themselves into 2 or 3 distict groups.

I want to first produce one horizontal bar that runs from the -1.50 to 2.5 overall range and secondly, I want to overlay a scatter chart horizontally over the bar showing where the data points lie within the range and also so I can visually see the clusters of points.

With the data residing in a column, when I generate the scatter chart, the points are laying verticle within the chart and spreadout horizontally. I can manually get what I want by narrowing the chart down to the point that the points lie on a straight vertical line, but I haven't been able to figure out how to "rotate" the chart 90 deg to overlay the scatter points within the bar chart.

Naturally, the optimum solution would be such that I could generate the charts originally and then allow the spreadsheet to generate the new charts as we modify the data values, etc.

A Chart Will Columns And A Line Chart Below??
I can create a column chart in excel comparing sales in 06 v's 07 for each month in 07, what I'm aiming to show on the chart is how sales have grown or not over a comparative period. A simple enough graph, I end up with about 24 columns (2 for each month and then a gap between each month).

I now want a line chart to show the performance of an index over the same time period, lets say the FTSE100.

I don't know how to get the line chart under the columns on the same graph, using the same x-axis with a small y-axis to the left. I could propably figure out the y-axis bit if I could only get the line chart below the columns.

I made the third data set into columns by right clicking on the data series line and selecting chart type. I change the chart type for that data set to a column and it worked great. The only problem is that when data is refreshed in the associated pivot table, the entire chart turns into columns with completely different formatting. Does anyone know how I can maintain the graph with the two lines and one column data set when I refresh the data?

Graph The Following Data In An Area Chart With Line Charts Superimposed On The Area Chart
I am trying to graph the following data in an area chart with line charts superimposed on the area chart. I have a lot of data (and a lot going on) so I'm trying to figure out the best way to show this in excel from a functional standpoing (i can't get this to work in excel!!) to also an asthetic standpoint (dont want it to look terrible or illegible). This is what I'm trying to chart:

1) Weather data (temperature) by region:
So one region, would be: Northwest
I would like the "area" (so a shaded region) to be the min/max of the temperature data for each month.

2) I would like to show the temperature for each year as a line graph on the chart - so you can see if a year falls in or out of the shaded region.

3) I would like to show a company's sales increases across the same months per year as separate line charts. I may choose to just show the biggest outlier year in the end... or to show 2006 (the latest data).

What I am trying to convery with the chart is that the company's sales is or is not tied to weather deviations. I have attached an excel file with the data. I haven't been able to use the area chart or get a two axis chart to work or get it to look even remotely professional.
