Has anyone ever succeeded in offsetting category labels in a chart by surpressing the first category label. I am plotting monthly financial data over several years and want to show category labels for the month ends which coincide with quarterly month ends (i.e Mar-06, Jun-06, Sep-06, Dec-06). If I select 2 tick marks between categories I get Jan-06, Apr-06, Jul-06, Oct-6) because my first month and category label is Jan-06. Is there a way to offset displaying the first category label by two tick marks and start with Mar-06 and then go every two tick marks between category labels?
I am putting together a graph and my manager wants the companies with a zero value in the bar chart to stand out (0 = really good). The only thing I could think of was making the individual x-axis label's font turn green if value was zero. Is there any way to accomplish this? (Additional: This chart will be updated every month with new data so I do not want to change by hand every month).
I have a pie chart that shows numerical values in dollars and I'm looking for a macro that will delete the $0 data labels. I found this code from Jon Peltier (great website by the way) but I can't seem to get it to work on my pie chart. No errors, just doesn't do anything:
Sub CleanUpActiveChartLabels() Dim iPts As Integer Dim nPts As Integer Dim aVals As Variant Dim srs As Series ActiveSheet.ChartObjects("MainChart").Activate For Each srs In ActiveChart.SeriesCollection With srs If .HasDataLabels Then nPts = .Points.Count aVals = .Values For iPts = 1 To nPts If aVals(iPts) = 0 Then .Points(iPts).HasDataLabel = False End If Next End If End With Next End Sub
I am having a problem formatting a chart in Excel 2010. My chart has multi-level category axis labels, and I would like to have a vertical grid line separating each major group of categories. In Excel 2003, I could right-click on one of the gridlines and then specify the spacing I wanted between gridlines. In Excel 2010, as soon as I indicate that I want multi-level category axis labels, I get a vertical gridline between each category and I am unable to alter the spacing. If I deselect the multi-level axis label option, I can adjust the spacing between the vertical gridlines, but the axis multi-level label functionality is lost. Is there a way to fix this problem without having to resort to using the drawing tools or text boxes to achieve the desired results.
i have attached a sheet where I have 4 graphs on one sheet. I prefer this to an overlay. I would like to add a 5th graph but it would make all the the graphs too small. Is there a way to make the graph background longer. For instance, extend the length of this so that I can put multiple graphs on it and then just scroll from top to bottom to review them? Also, how do I copy and paste these individual graphs into a newly created graph. copy/paste doesn't work on these?
I have an export from a database that I'm bringing into Excel 2010 of about 30K records. Data points are recorded numerically and I have their associated text "value label" (what it would be called in STATA, for example, not sure what it's called in Excel). I want to create various charts/pivot tables with the data and want the labels to be the text label, not the number.
For example, variable ASSIGNMENT has the following possibilities:
1 2 3 4
Here's what each of those "mean" (I have this in another table):
1 - Sick 2 - Overtime 3 - Court 4 - Present
How do I create a chart or pivot table where the labels are "sick", "overtime", etc., and not "1", "2", "3", "4"?
I have a worksheet that is just a list of items with a location listed next to each item. I took that list and made it into a pivot table and would like it to have it list the items with each location it is in displayed across. I have already set it to tabular form in the pivot table options, but if there are multiple locations it lists them vertically and I want them list horizontally for printing purposes. I have attached a screen shot to explain.
I have a simple reporting sheet where the data for orders place is in one sheet and on the other sheet is an imput box for 'date' and it filters through and presents a table of data and two graphs for the date chosen.
I give a daily report (contents of this sheet) but I also need to leave this sheet available for anyone to open and change to another date.
I want to copy the repor sheet into a new one and email but I want the graphs to remain, not go blank when anyone changes the original sheet.
I have a name in one column and the data in another. I am trying to match the name and the category and turn the column data into a row data. I have attached a sample of two sets of data since my explanation here may be lacking. Orriginal data is in columns A and B. Basically I think I need a double text lookup (matching the name and category) and put the data in a row format.
I have created a simple account list with - date - detail - category - amount.
How can I automatically list each transaction in date order by category on other pages. Each category is represented by a letter - e.g. 'T' for travel. In this example I want to list all travel transactions in a separate list in date order on another page for easy printing.
I have made a Summary page for each category but cannot work out how to make a detailed list for each category.
I need a formula to count list items if the date is between a specified parameter. I am trying to count how many help tickets were logged for a particular group or bureau during a specific week.
How many AA's between 12/1/2008 and 12/8/2008?
Bureau Date Opened AA12/1/2008 AA12/1/2008 AC12/2/2008 AA12/6/2008 AB12/12/2008 AE12/15/2008 AC12/16/2008 AD12/17/2008.........................
I know how to count a list of items when you identify what you want it to count (I11 (Access)) and where (Application (Named Range)) but I can't figure out how to include the date parameter.

I'm knocking up a spreadsheet that deals with expense claims for a small company. Under the Reason column you pick an expense type from a drop down list. What I'd like to be able to do is to set up a graph or table that can identify how much is spent on the different things. As there is a drop down menu system I'd like the worksheet to be able to differentiate the expense types and generate a total balance for each. Enclosed is an example of the spreadsheet.
DATA: list of films released by year, with box office totals and genre
GOAL: Function to sort data by year, then displaying how many films in each genre were released each year. E.g. horror comedies, romantic films released in 1981, 82, etc
Is there a function, or series of functions, by which I can do this without having to sort through manually?
What I basically have is 3 columns of data, A,B,C. Every two rows are a matched pair (e.g row 2&3, 4&5 etc)
I am trying to organise this data into columns E,F,G.
For all rows, if data in Col C is "A", I would like to copy the data in Col B to Col F For all rows, if data in Col C is "B", I would like to copy the data in Col B to Col G Then copy data in Col A to Col E
Also, the data in Col A represents different cases, so 1 is the same case, 2 is the next case etc. As you can see different cases have different numbers of entries.
Is there any way I can use conditioning formatting on datapoints in a graph, so that if certain points meet the criteria they will appear with another symbol?
Suppose I would like to change symbol on the datapoints exceeding the value 200 in this graph: Graph.jpg
I am trying to compare the frequency of occurrence of multiple unique values within a data set and graph the results as a pareto. I have the formulas working to identify and count the occurrences, and the chart is designed and displaying the data, however I cannot get the graph to display in descending order.
I am unable to sort the data because it is generated from a series of formulas, the returned values of which cannot be sorted. (its hard to describe, see the attached workbook)
I would like to know how I can display the graph so that it shows the bars (primary axis) in descending order (highest value to left, lowest to right) since I cannot sort the data. i.e. For the attached workbook, I want the bars to display in descending number of occurrences: 81,15,5,5,3,3,2,2.
I need to make a macro that creates a specified number of graphs depending on the file's number of data sets. I know the number of sets that are in the data, and I know the number of data points that were taken. Here is what I have:
Sub Graphs() Dim Startpoint As Integer Dim Endpoint As Integer Dim count As Integer Dim xStart As String Dim xEnd As String Dim NumberSets As Integer Dim yStart As String Dim yEnd As String Dim DataSet As Integer Dim Data Startpoint = 11 'The first set always starts in row 11 Endpoint = Range("L4").Value + 10 'Thefirst set always ends after the value of L4+10 NumberSets = Range("L7").Value 'number of times I need the loop to work count = 1..........................
I have a file with a small example of sales and % of sales for about 7 persons.
I wanted to insert a pie chart but want to show labels inside the pie chart along with % of sales and the sales person name near each part. How to do this ?
I am trying to write an If statement that returns true if Valule is checked off in the Data Labels portion of a chart. I tried using a HasDataLabel properties but Excel didn't recognize that.
See xls file. I have this chart and the data labels are percentages instead of the actual value. How did these get that way? Under Chart Options there is a autotext box that is there but if I uncheck it, the data labels go back to the actual dollar value and that autotext box goes away.
I am totally baffeled by this despite serach the help, the internet and this forum. I am sure it is something easy I am missing.
Can some one provide some color on this?
I cut this from a larger book with many tabs because I am not able to send out the entire thing (proprietary).
how to use avery 5963 labels within a workbook so that you can paste links to cells on different pages of the workbook? so that whenever the data changes it will update the labels automatically for printing.
In a chart if you display data labels is there a way of avoiding a zero being displayed if the relevant cell is the result of a formula? It seems that even if the result of that formula is a blank or 'n/a' it is still displayed as 0.
