When creating bar charts i add the data I need and the bar thickness is as it should be, but when i cange harizontal axis to include the correct dates the lines turn really thin?
View 2 RepliesI would like the cell to be red if the value is below 1.5. If the value is 1.5 or greater, I would like for that cell to turn green.
View 3 Replies View RelatedWhen I copy the formula to another cell, It doesn't show the result. But when I double click on it, it works. For example
there r values in A1 as "john" & A2 as "Jack". I write formula =A1 in cell B1. It shows "John". Now I copy this formula to B2, it shows "john" instead of "Jack" . When I double click on B2 & enter, it shows "Jack".
My question is regarding changing properties in a chart without activating it. My current example is with adding data labels, but there are many other instances I could use this information in. Here is my current code:
VB: ActiveChart.SeriesCollection(2).ApplyDataLabels
However, I was hoping to replace it with something like this:
VB: Sheets("Dashboard").ChartObjects("Chart 1").SeriesCollection(2).ApplyDataLabels
I get the "Object doesn't support this property/method" error. Is there a way to do this? It just seems inefficient to have to activate the chart in order to make changes.
I need to change the thickness of the borders line but I couldn't find out how.
View 6 Replies View RelatedIs there a way to display only the current month and the past 11 months in a Line Chart in Excel? So if I was to print Jan 2008 Excel graph, it would only display Feb 2007 - Jan 2008 data charting.
The spreadsheet of the data contains data for Jan 2005 - Jan 2008 so far, but only the current month with the past 11 months should display in the line chart depending on what is the current month.
use the “INDEX & MATCH” formula and I thank him very much for that. Now, I have another problem which I think the “IF & ELSE” statement may come into play. I am trying to calculate the cost of a cushion that is governed by it’s thickness.
Example:

B2 represents 12 inches
C2 represents 12 inches
D2 represents 5 inches
144 represents square foot
The calculation is,
F2=B2*C2/144*D2*£1.65*E2..............

How do I make this change, If the date resolved column has not data entry, but todays date is past the due date cloumn data entry change cell red and insert text to read "past date due"
How would you write a formula where the sum depends on what dates you enter in A1 and B1?
Date cells C1 to C365
A1 start date
B1 end date
Example:
A1 = 1/1/14
B1 = 1/31/14
So cells C1 to C31 will be added.
"=sum(c1:offset(c1,(b1-a1),0))
This formula works, except if you enter a different starting dates, it just counts from c1.

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.
I'm trying to create a chart with different source ranges e.g if i used
With ch.Chart
.SeriesCollection.Add _
Source:=Worksheets(1).Source:=Worksheets(1).Range("C1:C8,J1:J8")
End With
That works fine but I want to modify the columns it looks at. I was going to use the cells(x,y) method but I can't get it to work. icol = 3. Range(Cells(1, iCol), Cells(8, iCol)). This works for a single range(C1:C8), but how do i reference Range("C1:C8,J1:J8") in the same way.
I have a workbook, with 2 sheets. first page has graphs, second has data. in my charts I refer to a named range on the second one as follows: Data!Named_Range, where "Data" is the name of the second sheet. However when i save this, it changes the range of the chart to: '101044.xlsm'!Named_Range, where 101044 is the name of the workbook. This is a problem for me as this workbook will often be loaded into a document handling system where the file will change name, throwing out all sorts of errors because the chart path is invalid, and i have to change the range of all the charts manually. why does it have to use the file name when reffering inside the same workbook? and how do i force this to not change?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have an issue with pivot charts that I can't figure out and I can't find anyone with the same problems either. I have several big reports that use data from 2005 onwards that need to be represented on graphs separated by the city the data belongs to and different ranges of the results. This data is being sourced from inside each workbook on another tab and turned into a series of pivot tables (for each city) which provides the source for the charts. I did it like this because if I use pivot graphs I don't have to go through and individually change the data source range in the charts every time - because there are so many.
My problem is that when I refresh the pivot tables (to bring in the new data) the pivot charts 'chart type' resets. They should be represented in a Line - Column on 2 Axes chart and I have set this as the defult type but after refreshing it reverts to a basic column graph and I have to go through and change them all back manually. I made a macro that acts on a currently selected chart to change the format to make this process a bit faster:
I have a quarterly report that measures the safety performance of the plants in our company using bar charts. One set of 4 charts for the company as a whole and four additional sets of four for each of our divisions for a total of 20 charts.
I would like to change the color of the bars based on whether the location has met (bars colored green) or failed to meet (bars colored red) the goal for that criteria. The company average will be a yellow bar. Of course it can be done manually but that is really slow and tedious.
Is there a way, using VBA or a macro, to change the color of a bar (data point) based on the value of that data point? Can it run through all of the data points in each chart and make those changes based on criteria that I can set for each type of chart?
I am trying to create a chart that will show each month of the year's workload based on orders due for each month. I have all of the information needed on a spreadsheet to chart this into a simple chart showing the load, however, I want a little extra on the charting to show me additional details.
I would like for my chart to also display the available man hours for each month against the workload. I would like for the available man hours to be displayed by color changes in each month bar column of the graph.
So if I had 1000 hours of work in the month of April and only 960 man hours available in April it would have shown me throughout the month as the chart grew that I was "Green" for all hours below 860. The as the chart grew past 860 that portionof the chart changed to "Orange" telling me that the hours were soon to be full. Once it reached 960 that part of the chart would turn "Red" as an indication that we have more workload than we can complete for that month. This would be useful for me as an overtime tool, as well as for review for additional man hours or a decrease in man hours.
I have a spreadsheet which reports across different categories, but there's a lot of info. So simplify this, I've written a simple macro that changes the series range in an existing chart, so top level and by category. This works well apart from I'm using excel 2007, and some people aren't, so the default colours look fine on my version, but change to some awful colours on anyone with an earlier version of excel. I need a way of changing the colours to standard ones depending on which macro is being run.
I have tried running the following, but I get an error, basically saying the series hasn't been selected.
ActiveSheet.ChartObjects("Chart 6").Activate
ActiveChart.SeriesCollection(3).Select
ActiveChart.SeriesCollection(3).Interior.Color = RGB(255, 0, 0)
I am trying to create a macro which will allow me to change the source data for a particular chart. what i want to do is to have a code which looks in a range of cells (A8:B28) and then updates the chart to only include those cells within the range that contain a value? The number of cells with values changes depending on what options are selected elsewhere in the spreadsheet.

I have a sheet ( Graphs A) with 50+ graphs on all linked to a datasheet (Data A).
I now want to copy these graphs to another sheet (Graphs B) which links to a different data sheet (Data B). The data is in the same layout format etc.
The problem is that the find-replace function will not replace the sheet name in the charts series formula from Data A to Data B
Is there an easy way to change the source sheet for the new graphs?
I am trying to query my data, which includes a date field. If the user changes the date, I want to perform certain actions. Once I find the record, I can update all the fields with the userform. However, I can't compare the date in the userform with the date I have found so that it will follow a different course of action. Using the following I get the message whether I change the date or not.
VB:
If VisitorForm.txtLastVisit.Value <> FoundCell.Offset(0, -3).Value Then
MsgBox "Dates Don't Match", vbExclamation, "Sorry"
Exit Sub
End If
If I change the "<>" to "=", the routine stops whether I change the date or not. Something's working, but not right.
I did find that the userform sets the format to mm/dd/yyyy although the data is mm/dd/yy. But I've tried changing the data format and it made no difference.
I have list of dates:
e.g: D/M/Y
1/03/1997
22/05/2005
13/09/1945
I want a new list that just shows the year and is formatted as a number
e.g:
1997
2005
1945
Is there a way of doing this without doing it manually, I have 20,000 observations.
