View 1 RepliesI have two columns.
Column A is a list of Sales Reps over 100 of them with different names.
Column B is a list of Products attached to the Sales Rep. For each Sales Rep, it can vary from 5 - 10 different products
I want to find out whether any products are assigned to the same Sales Rep. How do I do so?
Here is my data
Range A1:L8
1234567891011Overlap111122275%22275%22250%22225%2220%2220%
I am trying to figure out a formula in L3 which is the calculation of overlap of region1 and region2. The top row is the number of days. What formula can I use to calculate the percent overlap? The numbers in column L show the expected result.

trying to update pie charts via vba. This is working fine, but I have a problem with the data labels. The number of categories can change each time the macro / data is run. This is as it will be for different customers that takle different products.
When the data labels are remapped, those with a small percentage end up placed untop of one another. I have already played with grouping these small percentage together into an 'Other' Category which works fine, but I know I will be asked to split this out.
Is it possible to add a condition that states 'DATA LABELS MUST NOT OVERLAP' - or is there some way of working around this to the same effect...
im trying to plot two series of data on the same chart, as a bar chart, say for e.g:
how many people eat oranges on any given day in a month on the primary y axis and how oranges 1 person eats in day on the secondary y axis..... thats all fine but when i add the series as a bar chart is overlaps the bars.... each series is on the correct axis i just dont want them one behind the other, is there a way i can have them next to each other. edit*based upon the comment below i have attached the image*edit
I want 2 cells that are not next to each other and that contain times of day to highlight only if the times overlap, I cant figure out how to make the conditional formatting do this...

I have tried using Ctrl + arrow key to move in small increments, but that didn't work. I have also tried adjusting the width of the rows, but the rows jump backwards or forwards to a number instead of staying with the number I entered. I want to create a seamless shape out of many different shapes.

To do this, I need to be able to determine if at any point there are 2 or more pieces of equipment down at the same time, and if this is true, how many hours were overlapped. The attached spreadsheet shows how the data is presented.

My problem is that for one set of data the chart looks fine....but if a number becomes negative the bar will overlap with the data labels at the bottom and cause it to be unreadable. I am not able to resize the x axis area or move the labels down any. Is there anyway to make the labels adjust automatically?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have to enter data into a spreadsheet daily and update a line graph with the data for 10 different production machines. I want to place the charts on their own separate excel file that way they can be easily viewed without the data next to them. I tried copying and pasting the graphs to another excel spreadsheet, but when I update the graphs on the original excel file the data does not change on the one I copied the graphs to. I use the select data range option to update the line graph data. Basically, I just want both graphs to update at the same time on both spreadsheets, but the links don't seem to update. How would I link the graphs so that both update across files?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've got quite of few excel charts to make and have been looking for a way to automate the process. The chart types include line, pie, and bar. Basically, I have data for each state in the US that I am comparing with national level data. Thus each chart will have national level data and the data for each state. What I need is a macro that I can easily change the parameters for because different worksheets have slightly different layouts. I started by using the macro recorder to make a chart. Then I attempted to edit it so that it would run loops to make additional charts. Below is some sample data for the first worksheet I have and my attempted macro.
Sample Data:
Code:
State Characteristic Value07 Value08 Value09
Alaska A 11 23 45
Alaska B 13 22 98
Alaska C 99 91 21
Alabama A 23 14 11
Alabama B 44 62 76
Alabama C 75 47 21[code]....
This code doesn't run at all.
i am creating a macro to animate the charts, but i need a code where, if i select a block in the chart it should take the point name automatically.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a simple problem. I have many worksheets which all contain data in the first four columns. I want to be able to create a chart (a scatter chart) in the first worksheet which plots the data on that worksheet and then format it how I want it to look. This I can do.
Next, I want to copy and paste that graph into all the other worksheets, but have the pasted graphs display the data in that worksheet.
As it stands, in Excel 2010, all the pasted graphs keep showing the data in the original worksheet irrespective of which worksheet I now have them in. This seems to be different to older versions of Excel and is very annoying and has to be changed by hand which is very time consuming.
How can I make charts that don't have the worksheet name in the cell reference, or how can I paste a chart so that is updates the references to the same row and column but in the new worksheet?
I know I could copy and paste the entire worksheet and then manually copy the new data into that copy of the worksheet - but that is not a real solution to this problem.
I have two line charts in Excel 2007.
One chart has the values going down from upper left to lower right
The other chart has the values going up from lower left to upper right
Is there anyway to merge these charts to see if they intersect at all?
I need to transfer data to powerpoint from my '4 box' reports in excel.
Essentially copying everything in the range A40:U74 inc charts and paste them into a slide as a picture on the click of a macro button.
I have to do alot of reports like this for my project and it takes up alot of time copying and pasting etc.
I have seen different codes for this but they are either for charts only or text... the one i did see for both, didnt work at all.
I want to prepare a graph / chart for the column A and column B. Column A has headers and B has the data that I want to represent in the graphs. The real problem in this is that the two columns length is not fixed. For eg. for January Column A & B could have 5 rows of data but for February they could have 10 rows of data. I dont want to prepare the chart manually every month. I want that if we could apply any VBA coomands that could prepare the chart automatically irrespective of the rows count.

I've prepared an excel file (excel 2007) with some tabs that contains several charts (4 to 6 charts). When I want to print this file, the sheets with the charts on it doesn't print properly. I have set the print area to cover the charts only and then set it to fit on 1 page but the charts will not scale to fit.
I read somewhere that this is an excel bug - is there a workaround for this?
I could resize all my charts smaller but only as a last resort.
I am trying to rename a chart in Excel 2013, but it keeps reverting my names. It looks like there might be a 32 character limit on the name length, but I cannot find any documentation supporting this.
In case it's not clear, I'm trying to rename a chart from Chart38 to "Productivity - Tractors CY/OP - Month", but once I press Enter, it changes back to Chart38. If I can shorten the name to less than 32 chars it seems to work, but that will be nearly impossible for some other charts.
I have Excel 2013.

I am building automated solutions where graphs source data is based on outcome of formulas. In case of line graphs I use #N/A as result if no data is available or formula results into an error - this way the data point and data label will not be shown in the graph.
However this does not work for bar graphs - with #N/A, #DIV/0, 0 or "" the bar itself is not shown but the data label is shown (as #N/A or 0). How can I set-up my formulas so that if result is 0 or formula is in error that the graph does not display the data label.
Attached excel file shows same data in 2 charts - 1 line chart (=OK) and 1 bar chart (=not ok). The data for chart is pulled from 2 other tabs (week&month) and merged into 1 data source for graphs.
I am gaining an error in my code due to the sheet being protected.
I cannot seem to get the correct code to allow for the code to still run, while the sheet is protected.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm working on a macro that does the following:
1. Pull data from the internet
2. Perform calculations on the data
3. Graph the calculated values
- As I run the macro, Excel dies in step 3, where I graph the calculated values.
- It works about 5% of the time and gives me the "Excel has stopped working" error 95% of the time - I can't isolate any difference in the attempts
- I've located the area in the macro where it dies, but I can't identify the exact line since it seems to shift around in this area
- It works perfectly fine when I step through using F8
- I've attempted DoEvents and Application.Wait to debug. Application.Wait for 5 seconds allows the macro to work about 50% of the time and increases in efficiency the longer I wait
- Steps 1 and 2 work perfectly fine (I've used that code in many macros), so I'm pretty sure the issue is in the below code:

I am using Excel 2010 to create a simple chart. When I enter the information, highlight it and select a chart, the chart area appears blank. It doesn't matter what kind of chart I choose- it still appears blank. I've tried going into the Advanced options and indicating for All objects to be shown and that didn't work.

I'm using Excel 2007.
I have some excel sheets that are formatted like the following:
COMPANY | TOTAL | RGB
company1 | 10 | 255,000,000
company2 | 20 | 000,255,000
company3 | 30 | 000,000,255
...
My question is that I would like to have a macro that runs on this basic file and creates a bar graph with the data. Then it utilizes the RGB values in the column to change the specific bar for that row.
My DB is in table format . I use this table as source data for 2 barcharts and 1 pie chart.Following are my table headers
Costs|exp heads|Month1|Month2|...|Month n|Spark lines|Average
When i add a month coloumn,Sparklines and Average coloumn should get updated automaticaly.Now this is not happening even if the data is in table format.I also want the graphs to be automaticaly updated.
