Inserting Control Into Chart
Aug 31, 2007
I have a feeling this is a stupid question, but I can't figure it out right now...
I have a worksheet with a bunch of charts as worksheets. I want to put command buttons on these charts. Whenever I select a tab which as a chart on it, my controls are grayed out, and I cannot insert a button. When I select a tab of a regular worksheet, I can insert buttons to my heart's content. Why can I not insert controls to the tabs which are charts? The ridiculous thing is, I have done it before. When I open that file, my buttons are on the chart. However, even in that sheet, I cannot insert more. Do I have a setting that I have changed, or somewhere I can look to enable the ability to put controls on a chart?

I'm trying to use the below code to insert a chart into a userfom, i'm using a tutorial that I've seen used on a few sites.
So far I found this code on the internet, the chart is the worksheet PMC
Set CurrentChart = Sheets("PMC").ChartObject("PMC").Chart
Fname = ThisWorkbook.Path & " emp.gif"
CurrentChart.Export Filename:=Fname, FilterName:="GIF"
Dashboard.Image1.Picture = LoadPicture(Fname)
Trying to load the chart into the image control image1 on the dashboard userform.
The debugger keeps hitting the chartobject section and grinding to a halt.
I have seen other ways of doign this but they require access to different libraries and work is restrictive with these things!
Also I have tried:
Set CurrentChart = Sheets("PMC").ChartObject(1).Chart
Fname = ThisWorkbook.Path & " emp.gif"
CurrentChart.Export Filename:=Fname, FilterName:="GIF"
Dashboard.Image1.Picture = LoadPicture(Fname)
Also the error message i get is: Unable to get the chart objects property of the chart class

I've been inserting some rows in some sheets and everything is sound... Until I meet a chart! Charts in general are terrain I yet have to explore (and will be coming Monday)...
I insert a row like this: ...

(I am using different data IRL which is company sensitive so I have designed a simple example spreadsheet.)
Ok, So I have a list of words A2:A4 and I have created a Control Box which allows me to select which word I want from the list.
On a separate tab I have lists of data which relates to individual words from the A2:A4 list.
What I what to achieve is when the word is selected from the drop down menu it will create a Pie chart showing me the break down of percentages and attributing 'companies'.

All of the functions' X Axis were given the same data (12,24,36,48), except ROULETTE and TOURNAMENT which were also given (60) for the X axis.
Why do the NORMAL bars aren't located on the place they should on the X axis?
For example, the 1st bar (from the left), should be a little more to the right. The others should move to the left.

Is there a way to make the colours in a chart (pie, column etc) correspond to a value? I'm using Excel 2002, soon to start using 2003.
For example, imagine a normal pie chart showing the population of each country in North, Central and South America. But for each country, colour gradations would be used to show levels of wealth (e.g., GDP per capita) as follows:
saturated red = bottom 20% (poorest)
pink = 21-40th percentile,
white = 41-60%,
gray = 61-80%,
black = 81-100% (richest)
Is this possible? And not to get too greedy, but can you use even finer gradations -- say, with ten categories, as opposed to the five in the example above?

I am using the VBA Chart Control and I have the following instruction;
Me.ChartSpace1.Axes(ChartAxisPositionEnum.chAxisPositionCategory).Numb erFormat = "mm/dd/yy"
The chart is a "chChartTypeLine". the problem is that i cannot change the format of the X-Axis to a Date (mm/dd/yy) format no matter what I try? I keeps wanting to keep it as "General", here is the code;
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Dim ser As ChSeries
Dim cht As ChChart
Dim MinValue As Double
Dim MaxValue As Double
MinValue = Sheet1.Range("D2").Value + 10
MaxValue = Sheet1.Range("A2").Value

I made a pivot chart. On the X axis are days of the year. I would like the axis to give the months rather than the days, because it is easier to read. But when I select the chart's axis, I don't have acces to any "number" sheet in the "Axis format" section. I could just change the scale.
ActiveChart.Axes(xlCategory).Select
With Selection.TickLabels
.Alignment = xlCenter
. Offset = 100
.ReadingOrder = xlContext
.Orientation = 45
.NumberFormat = "[$-41D]mmmm;@" 'I added this line
End With
ActiveChart.HasPivotFields = False

Scatter chart on excel 2010
My X axis range is small 1 to 4. but I want to show minor grid lines at 0.5, 1.5, 2.5, and 3.5 only. I do not want lines at 1, 2, 3 or 4. I am not sure how to achieve this. as switching on minor grid lines, included those at the integers as well as at the half way points.

I want to add a control under Chart on the menu bar. This line of code errors with "Invalid Procedure Call or Argument"
With Application. CommandBars("Worksheet menu bar").Controls("Chart")
Change "Chart" to "File" or "Edit" or "Tools" and it's fine.
The Chart item only appears when a chart is selected, but it errors even when a chart on the worksheet is selected.

Is there any way in VBA to refer to a control in its own event procedure without referring to it by name/hard-coding?
It might be clearer to explain by a dummy code example:
[Code] ......
I'm seeking what I would need to replace Line1 with.

Within the ComboBox properties, is there anyway to control after "enter" his hit, you move to the right instead of down (similar to the edit under Tools/Options)?

I have created a userform within VBA which has a TreeView Control and a Spreadsheet control on it.
I have populated the TreeView control with data and what I want to be able to do is to drag the nodes off the TreeView control to the spreadsheet control.
I can drag onto a normal worksheet but not onto the spreadsheet control (the no drop mouse pointer keeps showing).

How do I determine which control the user is currently modifying on a multipage form (either changing, enterying or exiting the specific control). when I use "userform1.activecontrol" i get "multipage1" as the control name but I need the actual control on the specific active multipage. (also the .TABINDEX is for the multipage regardless of the on-page control) I use a generic data-field change SUBroutine so need the control name (and the TABINDEX) to provide my SELECT CASE. (so every fieldname_CHANGE calls the same SUB [with no parameters])

Has anyone out their ever seen an Calendar type of control totally built in an Excel vba UserForm?
My problem that I’ve tried to resolve for some time is utilizing some type of pop-up calendar to eliminate format issues in my published Excel forms. I have tried a number of calendar controls but all have to be registered on the local machine and this cannot be guarantied for every machine.
If someone could direct me to a vba UserForm that has this built in that might do the trick. Or is their another way to deal with this?

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.

worksheets("Home").activate. But after I protect each chart and the workbook, and save and exit. When I reload the Workbook it has forgotten the assigned macros and nothing happens.

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 have created a population pyramid and want to add another chart on the secondary axis which I can do. The part which I seem not to be able to complete is getting the line chart secondary axis to read from the primary y axis. It seems to add a new axis, even when I delete this the line chart does not read correctly.

How can I add missing values to the axis in a pivot chart line chart? I have a numerical X-axis with values such as 0,1,5,8,14, etc. I have another set of Y values that correspond to the X values. If this was an XY-scatter plot I'd be able to plot X vs. Y and connect the dots for "gaps" in the X values. Since it's a pivot chart I cannot use an XY-scatter plot, I can only use a line chart. The line chart doesn't give me the ability to add the "missing" values, so it gives the impression that my data is more closely packed than it is. The data source is external to my spreadsheet, so I cannot add the values before creating the pivot table/chart.

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 would like combine (overlay) a bubble chart with a connected point scatter chart. I understand that, without VBA, this is not possible. However, I understand that, by using VBA, the markers of a scatter chart can be configured as circles with their size proportional to values in a specified column. This pseudo-bubble chart can then easily be combined with a connected point scatter chart.
My question is: does anyone have any VBA code to share that shows how to configure a scatter chart as the type of pseudo-bubble chart described above.

I am trying to overlay a line chart on top of a stacked column chart. The stacked column chart is a chart where the x axis is dates and the y axis is amount. The line chart is a projected amount that I will reach in few years; the x axis is the date while the y axis is an amount. I can get a chart that has a line and stacked columns, but ever time, the dates get messed up. The line has an extremely wide date range while the columns only have about a month of data.

Is there a way to display only the current month and the past 11 months in a Line Chart in Excel? So if I was to print Jan 2008 Excel graph, it would only display Feb 2007 - Jan 2008 data charting.
The spreadsheet of the data contains data for Jan 2005 - Jan 2008 so far, but only the current month with the past 11 months should display in the line chart depending on what is the current month.
