I am having difficulty figuring out how to get my chart title to automatically update when my chart changes via filtered criteria. I can get it to change by clicking the title bar on the chart, but would like the title to automatically update as soon as I select new criteria and the chart changes.
View 9 RepliesI've been updating all the charts manually each time I update the entries in the worksheet which charts are created from in the same workbook. Is there any way (eg. by use of macros or VBA) that I can have all the charts updated automatically when data ranges are updated each time?

I'm using concatenate to name a chart title. My problem is that when I concatenate two dates I lose the date format. I'm after a title which looks like 06 December 2007 - 13 December 2007
I'm actually getting 39422 - 39429
The cells have been formatted in date format but lose this when concatenated.
Is there a sollution?
I have a pivot table which I update on a regular basis. There's also routine during the pivot table refresh to assign variables to the minimum and maximum dates I include in the range.
Here's what I'm looking for - The chart title needs to be two separate lines. It should look something like this:
Labor Operations performed from min_date to max_date
(labor op code, description, total ops)
By themselves, I have no problem doing this. What I can't figure out is how to format the font of the first line of the title to have different characteristics from the second line. The second line is sort of a descriptor of the part in bold (in an attempt to keep my boss from asking me questions about what he's looking at)
Is there a simple way (without writing code) to have a chart title equal the file (workbook) name? For example a formula to write in the 'Chart Options' 'Chart Title' box?

I have already split my data so I can use CurrentRegion.I want each graph to have a different title using the text value of a cell which would be (6 * j - 5, 2) inside the For/To, but I can't get it to work no matter how much I tinker.This is the code as is without any of my attempts inside to clutter it up.

I've found several threads describing how to make a chart title dynamic by entering a cell reference into the formula bar with the chart title selected. I am wondering if anyone knows if it is possible to have VBA "code" a formula into a chart title that would be a concatenation of several strings. Ideally, I'd like to specify part of the title from a variable, and another part from a user-specified range, as in the following snippet from a module of mine:
ChartSubtitleText = Sheets("Sheet1").Range("A5")
ActiveChart.ChartTitle.Select
Selection.Characters.Text = ChartTitleText & Chr(10) & ChartSubtitleText
where ChartTitleText is a string variable that is passed to the Sub. This works fine and correctly builds the title block during execution of the macro, but I'd like to modify the capability to allow the user to enter a new value in Sheet1!A5 and have all of the charts update dynamically without re-executing the macro. Is there a way to have VBA create the chart and build the Chart Title with a formula that will allow for dynamic updating? I've tried having it enter the following line into the formula bar, but get errors: =CONCATENATE(ChartTitleText, CHAR(10), Sheet1!A5)
I have a very simple template which plots out means and standard errors of a treatment structure. The input is from an analysis of variance so I want to have the significance levels dispalayed in the title. This is simple for a single col of data but when there are more then one it doesn't use a cell to populate the chart title.
From the sheet I've attched the first and second chart have dynamic titles, if you change cell F10 from 0.364 to 0.001 the title on the second chart will change to "Input (**)" as it uses M19 for the title. The problem is that for the 3rd chart titled "CV*TR (NS)" any change has to be done manually (change cell F15 to 0.04 and this changes cell J43 to "CV*TR (*)".

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a program that updates values quarterly when run. The spreadsheet that it works with also contains a couple of pie charts that correspond to the updated data. the charts only have one series with category values. I recorded a macro to see the code excel uses for creating a new chart and tried to modify the statements to my needs but have been running into runtime error 1004 ("Method ' Cells' of Object '_Global' failed"). The code is as follows I don't have any trouble until the last two statements.
Sub Chart_Updater()
Sheets(Chart1var).Select
With ActiveChart
.HasTitle = True
If Chart1var = "COLI VUL 1 Fund Chart" Then
.ChartTitle.Text = "COLI VUL 1 Allocation by Fund Provider " _
& sday & "-" & sday & "-" & Lyear
ElseIf Chart1var = "COLI VUL 2 Fund Chart" Then
.ChartTitle.Text = "COLI VUL 2 Allocation by Fund Provider " _
& sday & "-" & sday & "-" & Lyear
ElseIf Chart1var = "COLI VUL 7 Fund Chart" Then
.ChartTitle.Text = "COLI VUL 7 Allocation by Fund Provider " _
The variables fundtr1, fundtr2, and emptycolvar are public, and are all returning values, so there is no problem there. Also I can't use ranges like "A1:F7" because the range needs to be variable.
Is it possible to update Chart Titles in Batches. For the following Titles:
'Client 1, Jan 07'
'Client 2, Jan 07'
'Client 3, Jan 07'

Would you be able to change 'Jan 07' to Jan 08' on all of the above whilst keeping the variable client name, in a single batch process?

Why the heck every time I enter in to the "edit text" area of the chart title box in a chart in Excel 2010 and type "=B27" (without the quotation marks, and understanding the contents of "B27" has the text I wish to display) does this idiot thing simply display "=B27" (again, without the quotation marks)???

Not sure my subject is matching to my problem. This is my first Thread. I work in excel sheet to tracking meters and am and my boss updating this sheet. This sheet we have in server drive so we both can share. The problem is I need some formula to update automatically whoever updates last in sign column. E.g. Computer id, or something. I attached sheet for more clarification.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have 2 excel tables that are frequently edited on a laptop and saved to a Dropbox folder. What I would like to do is have a second computer that will have these tables open and constantly updates (periodically or when changes are made). This computer and monitor will serve as a display in a common area (think of it kind of like a flight tracker).
What I have tried: I have tried to enable the Shared Workbook with a refresh of 5 minutes but the display computer is not showing the changes. I would like to make it refresh every minute if a periodic refresh is possible.
Note: It is my understanding that if you reopen the file, the data will update so maybe there is a way to have the file reopen every few minutes? I was able to successfully test this method; If I am able to automate this process without the two excel sheets changing the window positions (using a Workspace file perhaps) it would be perfect.
i have in sheet1, where the client key in the data, and sheet2 where i have to give the latest data to my manager. i tried with isblank and sort but in vain.. attaching the sheet.
View 4 Replies View RelatedWhat I'd like to have is one workbook, that 2 people can open and both people will see all changes that happen to the workbook.
As an example, there would be a Player 1 sheet and a Player 2 sheet. When you open the workbook you choose which Player you are and then it defaults to your sheet. You can then place your ships and start the game.
Each player would take it in turns to guess a square on the opponents board and then this selection would be sent to the other players sheet and updated automatically.
Most of it I think is quite easy to do - the only tough part being the updating process. Could I do it as 2 workbooks one for each player, (password protected to stop cheating!) and then when a move is made both workbooks are closed, the change is made and saved and the workbooks are re-opened?
I have a workseeht that consist of 13 tabs. This is what i am trying to do:
Each tab is for a month in 2007. The main tab is formated to show a recap of each month. So when the Janruary tab has been completed the main recap page should pull data from its tab. Then once the february tab has been completed the main recap tab should now show the data from this tab, and so on and so on.
I am currently updating the data manually by refrencing the new tab in the main tab formulas. I hope there is an easier way for me to get this data without manually inputing formulas every month.

The workbook I have has a tab for Master List of Transactions - there is data in columns A through J. In column E, when a year is entered, the data in columns A through D is copied to a tab for the specific year entered in column E. When the data from columns A through D is copied to the specific year's tab, it does not change anymore. If the information is changed at all on the Master tab, the macro does not currently work to automatically update the information on the specific year's tab but I would like it to. Is this possible?

How to automatically update the year tabs for changes on the Master List of Transactions tab.
In my "example" I have references in Summary!D23:E32 which take data from Input!B36:U36. Is it possible to automatically update these formulae if a row is inserted eg above my row 37? The formula in D23 should then change from =OFFSET(B37,-1,0) to =OFFSET(B38,-1,0) and so on. I would like this to occur wherever I insert a row.
I am using this code, but it inserts rows consecutively from the top only.
Sub InsertVolRow()
Dim iRow As Long, iColumn As Long
On Error Goto Exit_Error
iRow = Application.WorksheetFunction.Match(" Total", Range("A:A"), 0)
Rows(iRow).Select
Selection.Insert Shift:=xlDown
iColumn = Application.WorksheetFunction.Match("Total", Range("2:2"), 0)
Cells(iRow - 1, 1).Select
Selection.AutoFill Destination:=Range(Cells(iRow - 1, 1), Cells(iRow, 1)),
I would like to title columns based on values from other cells...

i need some changes to be made in this code. The existing code creates and updates the details in the sheets automatically from the master data. I just need the sum of Column I in all the sheets after the last row of Column I.
selecting all the sheets and typing the formula in I column is not possible because, the last row in Column I is different in all the sheets.
In sheet 1, the last row of Column I is Row 15, in sheet 2 Row150 is the last row.
I guess something could be done in macros.
