How To Link Droplist Options With Graphs
Jun 26, 2009
I am working on a project that people can use for documenting their actions at work.
I would like to know how after you produce a dropdown list of options, when a person selects a choice, it will add a numerical value of '1' on a graph.
For example:
What is your favourite colour?
droplist options (red, green, blue)
[person selects red]
-> on a graph next to it, the bar for red increases by 1, while green and blue remains at 0.
The droplist will automatically reset after every selection, awaiting retabulation.
PS. Ideally, I would have a button next to it saying "add", so after the option is chosen, the person would click on the button to add the increase on the graph.

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 a series of dependent drop lists and a cell which asks for a phone number. I would like if the selection in the previous cell is North America, the format of (111) 111-1111 is chosen. if the user enters the improper format I would like them to be prompt with an error "Improper Format - <Proper Format>", clear contents, and re-select the cell otherwise if valid select the next cell. It would need to strip out the leading 1 incase an international code is entered and also special characters such as "(",")","-","+","_" as well as spaces.
The next problem is that it would have to change format to if another selection is chosen. The other two selections are Australia and Europe. Europe is more difficult of a format as the area codes vary in length. I will be dealing predominantly with Sweden whose area codes even vary. For Australia I would like it to be in the format 011 61 1 1111 1111 where 011 61 will be added even if the user does not enter it (or if not possible prompt with proper format).
The cell asking which continent is G35 and options are "","Australia", "Europe", "North America"
The cell asking for a phone number is K47
The next cell on valid response is G50

Excel 2007.
I created an excel Calendar that has columns for months and weeks, and rows for hours of the day.
I have two drop lists one contains months, and one contains weeks.
Basically if you choose august from the first drop down list, all the rest of the columns that are not August disappear, and the sheet only shows august.
The second dropdown selects the week. If you choose week 1, it shows week 1 of this particular month. This second drop down is what I do not know how to make work.
This is the VBA code i used.
Private Sub ComboBox2_Change()
Select Case ComboBox2.Text
Case "May"
Range("All").EntireColumn.Hidden = True
Range("May").EntireColumn.Hidden = False
[Code] ......
I do not know how to make the code or choose the categories so that It only shows the week of the month chosen in the first column. Will I have to name each and every group of columns for each and every month as May - Week 1, May - Week 2...... June - Week 1, June - Week 2, etc... or is this a way around it?

I have two worksheets, one with detail monthly information and one with YTD information. So let's say the three numbers I want to capture in the YTD sheet are in columns B, G and I on the monthly sheet. January's data might be in B5, G5 and I5. February's data is in B12, G12 and I12 and so on.
On the YTD sheet in cell C2 I link to Monthly!B5 and in C3 I link to Monthly!B12 so cells C2 to C13 on the YTD sheet show the monthly totals from column B on the detail sheet. On the YTD sheet, cells C20 to C31 show the monthly totals from column G on the monthly sheet, so cells G5, G12, etc. And finally, cells C40 to C51 on the YTD sheet show monthly totals form column I on the monthly sheet.
In the past I've always created all these links manually. After creating the links in C2 to C13 on the YTD sheet, is there a way to use a formula in C21 that uses the link in C2 to create a link for G5?

How can I make batch changes to graphs in the same excel workbook (but on different worksheets?)?
In particular, if I have a bunch of graphs, how can I make bulk changes to color, size, axes titles, etc.?

I am creating a spreadsheet system for storing school grades, and I have a sheet on my system which shows graphs of the students data, and on this sheet there are rather a lot of graphs, and its sort of a visual overload to see so many graphs on one sheet. Im just wondering if there is any thing which I could insert which would give the person using the system a choice of which class's graph they want to show.

I have sort of a weird request. I've got a chart with data on a patient with a sleep disorder and was hoping to create some charts based on the information I've gathered. For example, I've got a column with the amount of time before she falls asleep and another column with a type of food listed. I want to see if there's any correlation between these two variables. What would be the best type of graph to do this, and what formula would I use?

I am making an excel program that performs a series of complex calculations then produces several charts of the output. I have the output in a table of a known lenght and width. The problem comes when attempting to create the graphs, I first delete all the old graphs and make new ones. Then I try to add the series to the graphs. I want the graph to be one column vs another column but I have only been able to get it to graph a column vs 1, 2, 3, ect.
how to set the x-axis source data for a given series.

I have two seperate graphs in two different workbooks. Both graph's are identical in the setup, they have the same X axis and Y axis value. They are identical in every way except for the varying in percentages. This graph was originally setup in that it would calculate the results for a period of a week at a time. Is there a way to merge the two graphs thereby showing the results for a two week period?

I'm trying to make alot of graphs(400) and I'm not really sure where to start but here with what I've got so far.
Sub macro2()
Dim x As Long, t As Long, y As Long, z As Long
y = 3
z = 5
x = 4
While x < 1000
With Worksheets("cabernet (2)")
t = Cells(x, 1).Value
Charts.Add
ActiveChart.ChartType = xlLineMarkers
ActiveChart.SetSourceData Source:=Sheets("cabernet (2)").Range("By:Hz"), PlotBy:=xlRows
ActiveChart.Location where:=xlLocationAsObject, Name:="Cabernet (2)"
ActiveWindow.Visible = False
ActiveChart.HasTitle = True
ActiveChart.charttitle.Text = " " & t
Windows("complete Favorite Genes.xls").Activate
y = y + 3
z = z + 3
x = x + 4
End With
Wend
End Sub
I don't really know if putting a variable directly into a range works, so far it doesn't.
As you can tell I need a line graph of the range B3:H5, then the next is the those same columns but 3 rows down, so the next graph is at B6:H8. I'd also like to through in a title here, but I may just be playing with fire. The title is located in column A starting at 4 and corrosponds with each graph, so it too goes is increments of 3, i.e., the first title is at 4 the second at 7 the third at 10. Somebody help me out this isn't working very well at all.

I have a data which has a start time, end time, Stay Time(End-Start) and # of subjects. I am trying to create a graph, line, bar or histogram which shows how many subjects were there at a specific time. So the horizontal axis would have time from 00:00 to 24:00 and vertical axis would have the total # of subjects or the %.
Start End Subject Stay
01:00 02:00 1 01:00
01:00 01:45 1 00:45
02:00 21:00 1 19:00
03:10 14:10 1 11:00
The data set is huge(27000 rows) and I am using excel to create a graph.
I have tried using line plots and bar charts(stacked) but couldn't. I am not sure if there is an easier way to do it .

I currently have a 70 page spreadsheet with similar data that needs representing in pie chart format. All the column headers are the same and I only need 2 columns (A and T).
There are however different numbers of rows. Is it possible to write a macro to detect the number of rows before it draws the relevant pie chart (I've managed the pie chart bit!!)
See attached example, same concept but cant post real data.

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.

So I have lets say 3 workbooks and on each first tab of that worbook there is a (pivot)graph. Now what I would want is VBA code which opens these excel workbooks, then copy the chart and paste it into a powerpoint presentation each chart on a new powerpoint slide. So it can be rather basic. A loop which goes thru excel sheets and always takes the chart on the first tab. I see a lot of different code but not what I really can use for powerpoint thru excel vba.

I have multiple graphs that read from rows varying in length from 2 to 60 columns long, depending on user input. I need help in creating a macro that readjusts the graphs to read from smaller/larger data set.
I created one that said: If user input = 1, then set graph to (A1:A1), If user input = 2, then (A1:B1), but this is really inefficient. Is there a better way?

I have a document that is a question and answer (an audit check sheet). Based on how the questions are answered, I need to have a bar within a graph change colour.
Is this possible ? Im not sure if we can use conditional formating or programming to amend a graph.
Would i need to use conditional formatting or vba/macro ?????
I have attached the document with a more detailed outline.

I am trying to copy a group of six graphs from one Sheet "Charts" and paste them in another Sheet "FinShots" in the same Workbook. I have grouped the graphs and named the group "FinShots1".
But I can't seem to write a code that will copy group "FinShots1" from "Charts" and paste in "FinShots".

I am currently working through data received from several experimental runs I have done for my masters studies (In chemical engineering). I need to create a chart for every experiment but coding the macro to do that has been near impossible. I have the file with the first graph drawn but I dont know how to post it.
I know it will be possible to draw every chart by hand but I am waiting on another 300+ data sets and then the amount becomes crazy.

My question: is there anyway to get graph 2's y-axis to change to whatever graph 1's y-axis is automatically?

if its possible to run conditional formating on graphs, I can do this fine on the actual data
i.e. Have a bar chart with a number of bars all the same colour and just wanted to have the bars change to red if they drop below a certain percentage.

Is there a handy way to group worksheets withing a workbook, other than hiding them? I'm building a workbook at the moment and am constantly adding worksheets and expect a lot more when producing graphs. I have in mind a tab that would say for example "graphs" and when selected it would free up or open all the graph worksheets and when not in use all those worksheets could be grouped together behind that one tab.
