I have a basic line chart. It was generated without a horizontal axis title, and very little room to add one. When I add one, the chart won't resize for it, and it bumps into the numbers on the axis. How do I get the chart to resize so this axis title fits in nicely. This has proven to be surprisingly difficult. Note also that a lot of options are greyed out that I try, and so far un-degreyable.
It all works fine but I've noticed an odd quirk which I can't explain nor can I seem to fix. Here's the (reduced) code :
Code: Dim appExcel As Object ' Excel Application Dim chtPareto As Object ' Chart Set appExcel = CreateObject("Excel.Application") Set chtPareto = appExcel.Charts.Add With chtPareto ' Primary category axis
[code]....
The category (x) axis title should be horizontal, whereas the value (y) axis title should be rotated. Stepping through the code, when I .SetElement for the category axis title, it appears horizontal as planned. However, as soon as I .SetElement for the rotated value axis title, the category axis title also rotates.
I'm not getting all of my text into the Axis title "box" in a normal graph in excell. And I'm not able to use the arrow to "drag" the axis title to a larger area. Making the size of the text smaller is not a option, I would like the axis title area larger.
How can I change the typeface to Times New Roman for all three and change the font size for the Axis titles? hundreds of charts to change and not enough patience to to it manually.
I am having a bit of a problem creating a formula for this report that I have to update every week. I need to be able to find the room nights and net room revenue values for the specific rate code in the "MATRIX" workbook.
On "CURRENT REPORT," I need D4 to pull up the value on "MATRIX" that equals "Room Nights" in column H and "CONABC" in column J. The same thing needs to happen for F4 but with "Net Room Revenue" in column H. The full report has about 500 of these codes in column J, and I need a formula that I can copy easily and will not be affected if codes are added or removed. This is super last minute - I need to finish this report by tomorrow morning, so take a look at the attachments.
We have a lot of charts we want to create in Excel 2007. We have templates created that seem to work. (But also sometime seem to not.)
After the charts are created that are placed in their own chart pages/sheets. The problem I'm having is that the x axis title doesn't seem to be centered horizontally wrt the x axis of the plot area. (It does look centered wrt the chart area.)
Some code or an algorithm to control he placement of the x axis title and maybe center it?
I have a combination column and line chart with the line series on the secondary axis. Is there a way that I can tell excel to scale the secondary axis so as the line always appears above the columns? As it is it appears above in most instances but sometimes appears below the columns.
I have a chart with percentages and most of them are >40% so I would like te values to start at 40 in the y axis but I would also want to have the 0% show (as it stands there is nothing there) It is a double y axis chart where the % is shown with just a dot and the other Y axis is the actual column. Im not sure if I'm making sense but I would just like to have the 1st value in the secondary y axis be 0 and the 2nd value be 40, and from that point forward scale in intervals of 5%.
So the values in the y axis are: 0%, 40%, 45%, 50%......
I'm trying to make a line graph with specific increments on both the x and y axis. Now, I can make specific increments on one, but have to sacrifice the other in order for me to label the lines. Im not sure how to get around this. I'll just type out what i'm trying to do and maybe you smart people can help me here.
Okay, both the x and y axis must be in increments of 8,10,12.5,16,20,25,30, and 35.
The first line should be labeled "Indicated magnification, and should have the values 8,10,12.5,16,20,25,30, and 35... the same as the x and y values, making the line a straight linear line.
The second line should say "actual m value" and have values of 10,12.5,15.5,20.5,25,31,37.5, and 44.
The third line should say "actual n value" and have values of 10,13,16,21,26,32,38.5, and 45.
I have been given a task to create a line graph who has 10 categories and each category has 5 different values. I need to plot a line graph, so that those 10 categories should appear on the Y-axis instead of X-axis.
1) How do make values on x-axis as words? E.g. apples, oranges, etc.
2) Is it possible to have the numbers on x-axis in descending order? If I can figure out 1), I can do this as well, but it would be nice to know if it is possible to have the numbers on x-axis in descending order.
I am attempting without much luck to create a Room Booking system.
I am facing 2 issues:
So far when you enter the guest iformation onthe booking sheet it is copied to a worksheet which stores the booking information.
Then i need it to be copied to a worksheet called Required Gantt - I have attempted conditional formatting and Lookup formulas but i am having difficulty getting the booking displayed on the gantt sheet (blocking out the entire period that the guest will stay)
Also if a guest is leaving on 28/07/2009 and i have another guest arriving on the same date, i can't make a new booking as the old guest is still blocking the room, even though they have left. Is it possible to make it so at 12 noon, checkout time, i can book another person into that room?
I have a spreadsheet with golfers handicaps, golfers names down the left in column A in rows 3-35. Row 2 has the event numbers titles 1 to 18 (18 events in a year). i need a graph that has the person as the vert axis and the horizontal axis needs to be the event numbers, so i can read down for the person and across to see how there handicaps change from each different event. i have attached the data below.
Copy all of the info from the main page to the guest lit (a new row each time).
From the guest list to the Gannt chart - i did a few tutorials on dynamic gantt charts using conditional formatting but cannot get them to work when based on data on a different worksheet.
Finaly is there a way to check for availabilty on any given date?
Following on from this thread: Create Room Reservation System
There are 3 problems that i've spent all morning trying to work out but can't:
1: I need to change back the layout of the Gantt chart (as it matches the paper system we have been using here, so it will be easy for the other volunteers to use it) - I did change it back and played with the conditional formatting and macro's but i can't get it too work like the version that AAE changed...
2: If I make a reservation ‘Booking’ is placed on the gantt chart, though only on the first date (I.E 22/09/09 – 25/09/09 – The first date is blocked but i can still double book the room via 23/09/09…) so I need the entire date range blocked out and I’m helpless at writing or even attempting to change VB Code…
3: Booking rooms and checking availability is great for single rooms, but I have realized that for dorms (upto 10 Beds) then once I book one person in, then I won’t be able to book the other 9 beds, which is a pain! Is there a way to have the room list but also a bed list for each room. So for instance Dorm 1 has 4 beds – I book 1 person in it and it still appears as available until I book another 4 people in it, then it blocks me from booking someone else in the room?
I'm a student who doing a excel spreadsheet. I've stucked in this situation for long time, could any body point for me what i have to do.
1. I have to do a nest lookup, mean that when i look in a date (RoomBookingStatusList) and do a nest lookup in side to find the status of the room (RoomBookingStatusList). In short this help me to check that a room has not already been booked for the arrival date the customer wants (Clientbooking).
2. Next, if possible could anybody tell me how to alert the result. For example, it will turn red if the room is busy.
I have some numeric data that has to be put on a log chart. but there is no option for log charts. so i converted my data to log and then drew a chart but i am unable to edit the axis intervals and starting axis value. whenever i change the value it gets back to its default value,ie 1. can anyone tell me how to draw log chart or how to edit axis intervals and starting axis value?
I need the two x axis to be pressure and solubility and the y axis to be velocity, with the data being demonstrated by a single plot (I have only managed it with two plots which does not demonstrate solubility's relationship to pressure ).
For example at a pressure of 200 PSIA (lower x-axis) and solubility of 0.024 mol % (upper x-axis) velocity was found to be 1 m/s.
I want to a create a formula that reviews a series of start dates and end date, then sums the number of days (if the end and start date are withing a yearly period). i.e.
Column A = Room No Column B = Start dates Column C = End dates
Column A references a list of rooms (Room List) If Column A = Room123 If start date is equal to or greater than 31/12/2007 If end date is less than or equal to 31/12/2008 Calculate the number of days used.
how to incorporate another category and value axis to my existing chart.
1. I need to add a rank axis derived from my data column (C6-C15). This column should rank from highest to lowest and create a tie if any number is repeated. I have arranged the rank column in cells B38:L38 as they would appear. I would like this to appear on the top or bottom of the bar graphs.
2. Second I need to add the frequency of hits which = 3 derived from cell J1 This should appear on the chart were it is currently titled. This should create another bar graph colored green and labeled 3.
3. Lastly the numbers axis can remain the same as it appears on the chart or if it would be better to align as shown in cells B43:L43.
I am an IT Consultant and my client is doing a workstation refresh. They are a CPA firm. They use software called ProSystem Fx Engagement as a filing closet sort of thing. This has a toolbar Excel when work papers are opened from within the Engagement file room. In the Engagement toolbar there is an icon which allows the user to check all boxes. I have contacted the vendor and they said they know nothing about this and it is unsupported. I am trying to migrate to the user's new machine (helps save alot of time) but kinda stuck in a rut. I am assuming this maybe is a custom macro? I am not an Excel guy, I do server stuff etc... but trying to please my client, I included a screen shot of the toolbar and highlighted the button he would click to make this function work. This is Excel 2003 w/ SP4, and Windows XP Pro w/ SP3
what formula could I use to calculate the solved/unsolved issues assigned to a room or to an employee? I use an autofilter on this date, so that I can only show unsolved issues.
I am trying to find a formula that populates a room number based on the number of hours used. I have a chart that is by building but multiple rooms within each.
Where I am having trouble is when there are more than one room with the same number of hours used then sometimes the formula populates the wrong room number.
Attached is my example spreadsheet of my chart. Book1.xlsx
I have shown what I need, what I have tried and a blank space to show where I need it to go.
I have a data set that is a spectrum of (y)intensity vs (x)energy I was wanting to add an additional X axis at the top of the graph showing the wavelength conversion for the energy value, is that possible in excel? and if so how?
how do you create a graph with a field such as vendors on the X-axis, but with dollar values spent on the left side of the y-axis and percentage of total dollars spent on the right side vertical axis?
I would like to add a vertical axis to the right of my plot that looks exactly the same as the left axis. The only way I found to do this is to add a secondary axis. However this axis is based on a data series and it does not match the left axis.
How can I make the left and right vertical axis look the same.
