I would like to insert images (like a questionmark symbol) into a spreadsheet I'm working on, and then when the user hovers the mouse over the questionmark a "help-text" pops up. I've noticed that it doesn't seem to be that simple making a tooltip, however, is it possible to replace the small red triangle that is inserted into the sheet to indicate a comment with an image?

The big picture is that I have a number of cells with numerical values in and text in comment boxes. I want to be able to click a button to copy the contents of the comment boxes and paste them, along with the numerical value from the cell, into a single comment box, ordered by highest to lowest value within the comment box, then delete the original cells and comments.

My question is how do I change the marker value series from a bar to just a marker? I would like the chart to look like this (except a bar, not a line):

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a scatter plot in which there are, for example, twenty plotted points representing one of three major categories.
We're using a red square, green triangle and blue circle to represent our categories on the graph. Going in to every plot point and manually changing each point so that it has the proper color and style is very time consuming.
Is there a way to designate in the spreadsheet (in its own column or something) that I always want the plot point to be represented in a certain way (like a red square) when graphed?
I'm trying to use an image as a custom marker on an XY scatter chart. The jpg image is embedded on a separate worksheet and when I copy and paste it via code it seems to be arbitrarily resized. I've also tried to resize the embedded image and set the marker size but it always appears about 3 times the size of the original image. See CASE -0.5 below.

I have a simple Excel 2007 column chart which has names listed along the y axis for each column. Associated with each name in a small table is a colour reference. Is it possible to add a small marker (say a triangle or something) that aligns with each column?
Or possibly (or in addition) colour each column differently and in accordance with the assigned colours? I'm doing this with some vba code. but if someone can point out the general principle I should be able to work that in.
I feel a bit silly asking this in the presence of so many obvious excel gurus: but here it goes. I've created some user forms, activex controls, etc. that do a series of complex calculations, supported by VBA and it's at the point where I want to roll it out. How do I hide / get rid of the active cell marker on the sheets? I've looked in the "options - view" section and have lucked out.

I have a macro that changes the marker style for all series in a scatter chart, chosen through an input box.

It works nicely, but I want it to exclude any series that do not have markers (i.e. lines used to indicate a reference value). I've tried an if-then statement after the With statement, but it will add markers to any line series:

Basically, if the series has markers or line+markers, I want it to change the marker style, otherwise do nothing with the series.
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 sheet that when printed out, will have 1 or more check boxes (depending on a formula) beside various items. Basically, if in a datafield it shows that there should be 3 boxes beside a line, it will show similar to this (except the O's are check boxes).
Usable 3 times per day. O O O
In the actual symbols list, there are no such symbols. I think there must be another type of symbol available as I use: ►
I grabbed that symbol from another spreadsheet, and I have no idea where it came from. I have wanted a similar arrow that points to the left or up, but I have no idea where to find them. I only know that the spreadsheet accepts a copy/paste of this symbol, and it does not seem to be related to any particular font set.
where I could find a "empty box" symbol, and also tell me where symbols like ► come from.
I need to use the following symbol (,, ▬ ) to show when my prices went up or down but when I try to use them in the VBA, they are replaced by a ?
I considered using the CHAR function, but its 255 characters do not incorporate the one I need.
I have a large list of data.
Approx 10,000 rows.
All I'm looking to do is delete in each row everything after the / symbol.
So everything after a forward slash gets deleted.
All my data is in ColA from A3 downwards.
Ideally would love a macro I can assign a button to.

I am trying to create a custom number format that will put a plus sign in from of the value in a cell if the value is positive.
Here is what I have been using:
+#,###;-#,###;"On Forecast"
There have been a few problems with this. Firstly, the values are have two decimals, and I have not been able to adjust it accordingly. Secondly, there are some cells that contain only a zero, and the custom format above changes the zeros to 'On Forecast. Other than these two issues, that custom format works.
I am wondering if there is a symbol for "text" that I can use in a formula. I.e., =if(C="text", "", INDEX(C:C,MATCH(D16,A18:A23,0)))
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm using a large database - excel based, with lots of VBA and macros inside - where the default decimal format is “.” (period).

I've recorded a macro to replace all of the periods with comas - still some of the values come up as a whole number, the period not being replaced with the coma.
I've tried almost all of the formats - text, general, number .... Still does not work.

View 12 Replies View Relatedis it possible to take a cell, and add a symbol in between every word?
for example:
cell1 = i am having a good day
desired cell1 becomes = i-am-having-a-good-day
cell2 = super awesome
desired cell2 becomes = super-awesome
i have looked into the option of using Data > Text To Columns, then using = CONCATENATE(B54,"-",C54,"-",D54) to form the string
however, since the different cells have different lengths of words, the concatenate(cell,"-",cell...) is not flexible...
For copying cell content into an other cell one can use = in the receiving cell.
Is there an equivalent symbol that will only copy the formatting into the receiving cell, without using format painter?
Can complete formatting instructions for each cell be seen somewhere, similar to the data in the formula bar?

Its the degree symbol, however using that symbol in VBA has proved to fail me. I have a large data set that is created for import but it will continue to fail until I remove this, Find(Replace) should work right? But using a search in VBA it deletes the entire cell.
