I have some cost data for 5 different technologies that I would like to plot in a graph. the technologies belong to 3 unique categories and I want to group them on the chart so that there is no gap between technologies in a same category.
I have a graph where they are grouped by title of the category but how I may remove the gaps between the individual bars in the same category?
I have recently noticed a problem with a pivot table and assoicated pivot chart. The table has numerous columns from date, location and one entitled route. The route column has a value which is either a number or 'other'. The formatting of the column has been set to general (although the same problem was present under text). The problem is as follows:
When a new row of data is entered where the route is the same value as previous rows it should be grouped together. However when I go into my pivot table and look at the options for route I find the same value repeated twice. ie a route value of 155 will be listed once at the top and then lower down the list. A temporary fix is to rename all values of 155 to x155 and then back to 155. This then has everything grouped again under one value in the pivot table. As soon as new entries are added though the problem repeats itself. Does anyone know why this might be?
grouping the protected/locked data.I am using excel 2010.I have data in sheet and have inserted group. I have protected this sheet and hence not able to use data group in this sheet.Is there a way i can operate data group option even if the sheet is protected.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a given set of data. Each row of data fits into one of 7 different categories. Besides doing a simple filter to be able to pull out a certain "category", how can I do this differently? Is there a code/macro process I need to go through? Basically what I need to do is find a way to group these categories together, so that someone searching for a certain category can easily pull it from the data.

from the Forum on building a macro and was kindly told that a Pivot Table would do the job better, which it does. However, my table has a column of several dates, I was wondering the best way to group the dates into months rather than showing the full date, eg, September instead of 16/09/08 or August instead of 01/08/08.

i have a pivot table but I'm just not sure how to create these groupings. Is a pivot the right way to do it - or should I be doing something else with the source data.
I'm trying to sort a selection of data into groups (2 cols, 1st is P-No, 2nd is Qty) based on the first four digits of the P-No and then tally the groups Qty (so I have the total Qty for any given product group) but short of sorting the data by P-No then manually separating it into groups where the first four digits are the same and then applying a SUM calc to the separated groups Qty column I can't think of a function/sum that would speed this process up!
Any way to speed this process up/automate it?
The Data Worksheet in the file attached lists information on various software packages a company sells. Each product has an associated category listed in column B. Write a sub that creates a worksheet for each category represented in the list, with the name of the worksheet being the category, such as Business. For each category worksheet, it should enter the product names and their prices in columns A and B, starting in row 4. Each category worksheet should have an appropriate label, such as “Products in the Business category”, in cell A1; it should have labels “Product” and “Price” in cells A3 and B3; and the column width for its column A should be the same as the column width of Column A in the Data worksheet. ( Note that there are only three categories represented in the current data. However, the program should be written so that it Works for any number of categories – and any number of products- that might be present.)
I have the following code, it works properly when I run it for the first time but fails to re-run for the other coming runs.
This is what the data sheet looks like: [URL] .......
Code:
Sub Business()
Dim Data() As String
Dim blnCheck As Boolean
Dim intProdCnt As Integer
Dim i As Integer
Dim wksC As Excel.Worksheet

I have a set of data that looks like this:
A | B | C | D
---------------
100 | 2 | 0 | 0
100 | 0 | 0 | 7
100 | 6 | 0 | 0
101 | 8 | 0 | 0
101 | 0 | 5 | 0
101 | 0 | 0 | 1
Column A is a 'User Number' and columns B-D contain values.
I was hoping to use this data to create a new range where each 'User Number' only has one row, and the values in the other columns are summed for each user.
This would ideally look like this:
A | B | C | D
---------------
100 | 8 | 0 | 7
101 | 8 | 5 | 1
I have around 30k data. which is in invalid format.

MOD,567456789, , kkccjhg, fo,345678921
I want to know which are formulas I have to use to get this info in correct format.
I have a data file saved as csv like this:

2700,200507,0,0,5.7756,0.0885,0,0,1930
what i want to do is to group the record with the same postcode together and just return one record for each postcode in excel.
so the output will have the postcode, the sum of written premium, written units.
I understand i can use Access to do it, but I want just to use excel for this task.
I need a VBA macro code to get the output like in the excel file which I have attached with this thread. Which means, I need to group the data for every two hours. in the output I need all 4 cols namely A, B, C, D along with extra col namely, interval based on which I need these groupings to be done..
The code has to be really flexible so that it works for all dates and times in the files. Because like this I have to do for 2000 files.....

The attached file shows what I'm trying to do - I'd like to fill in the data in the top left corner table (blue-shaded) with the data combined from the two other tables. Think of the Greek letters as names that are grouped into the groups named {A,B,C,D,E} (the names have no significance, it's just an example).
I was able to do so using an array formula and an extra column (yellow shaded) as you can see in B2 - however, this solution doesn't suite my case because the actual tables will be coming from automated processes and cannot be easily manually altered.
I tried inserting the array formula into the sumproduct formula - see B3 - but for some reason this doesn't behave the same as when the array is outside the formula. I should also mention that I came across a user defined function solution - this too is not so suitable for me right now.
I need to plot various data on top of stock charts.
This data could be irregular in date: it could be weekly, or simply random.
To plot this data by itself requires a Scatter Chart.
From what I know so far, you CANNOT DO THIS.
However, I suspect this could be done if I build a Stock Chart from scratch using a Scatter Chart.
Error bars can be used to make the tails, however, I don't know how they built the body bar which has the characteristics of a bar (border, and interior.)
But since I don't really need those two characteristics, I just need a wider error bar line that is provided in the chart edit window. I'm guess through a macro, there are wider line widths assignable.
I am looking for a creative way to display a pie chart within a data point marker of a line chart.
My database has 3 value columns, Type1, Type2 and the Total (Type1 + Type2)
these are recorded per day (Date, in Column A)
I have a line chart that displays the total by date, but I want to find a way to display the percentage split of a particular day by type.
I was thinking to load the chart image into the Data point marker, but i don't think that is the best way as the data is updated daily and I would have to do it each day for a few line charts.
The other way I was thinking about was to have a generic Pie chat in the Line chart (Maybe in a corner) and the pie would update depending on way date series was selected or Mouseover'd)
the way that I am approaching it at the movement (Not the best way and by far not the coolest way. Is to have a list of all the dates in a column next to the Line chart and using some VBA, what ever date is selected in the column the pie chart displays the corresponding data. But eh challenge is that when there is alot of dates, I am going to be scrolling up and down.
I am using Excel 2010, but I cant not use the slicer's as the other users do not have 2010, they have 2007.
I have a spreadsheet created in Excel 2003 (which is what we use at work, unfortunately).
My employees periodically take a test to ensure they have certain items memorized (or are making progress to that end). The spreadsheet rows show all 46 of my employees, and their test scores. The columns are the dates that the tests are administered. I can create a line graph based on the chart data, and interpolate these data with no problems.
The problem is that there are 46 employees! 46 lines on the same graph make for a very cluttered, hard to understand visual. I want to simplify the view by "filtering out" some of the data.
I have an additional column in my spreadsheet for each employee's work area (Area 1, Area 2, etc), and another column with data based on first letter of last name (the values here could be "A-G", "H-M", "N-S" and "T-Z", for example). I figure i could filter my line graph based on these two columns. For example, somehow select just Area 1, and reduce the number of lines on the graph to 16. Or better yet, Choose "Area 2" AND "A-M" and end up with 7 employees (and therefore 7 lines on the graph).
Here's what i have tried:
1) Select the work area column, and use the Filter, which created a drop-down list at the column heading. When i use this drop-down list, i can easily filter the data in the worksheet by Work Area, but this is not reflected in the line graph, which still shows all 46 lines. The problem was that i forgot that i had set the Calculation Options to "Manual". Setting this to "Automatic" (or leaving it on Manual and pressing F9) solved the problem, as the chart now updates when i use the filters. Calculation options are under the "Formula" tab in 2007, or in Tools -> Options -> [either calculation or formula, i forget what it's called] in 2003.
2) Create several separate line graphs in several separate sheets. I wouldn't want to assign someone else the task of maintaining a spreadsheet of such inefficient design.
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.
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.

I need grouping and then summing in either msquery or back in excel after the data has been extracted from msquery.
I have external data that i have interogated in msquery, and I would like to to sum the amount column if possible.
I have two fields, first field = account number
2nd field = amount due
the first field could contain 5 sets of the same account number, but with different amounts in the Amount Due column. I would like to sum the amounts due for each of the account numbers in one column.
If i cannot do this in msquery, how do i then go about doing it back in excel. I know i can use subtotals, but then when the data updates from the external data source.
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.
How do I paste the first chart into the second chart but maintain the format of the second chart?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a column line chart to which I add data monthly and then have to manually update the "source data" to reflect the added data on chart.
