Using Named Ranges To Update Charts
Jan 22, 2007
I want to update a number of charts using data that covers a rolling 12 months - this will be amended each month by addition of new data but I will be retaining the full history. I thought the easiest and quickest way would be to name the data range and just amend it each month as I added new data. However, when I use the named range in the chart wizard it is replaced by direct cell references. Can anyone suggest how I can retain the name in the chart or suggest an easy alternative method?

I have written this macro to convert into a csv file to run for all defined named ranges in the activesheet. It run jst perfect when I hit SAVE button and it creates that many different CSV files for each named range.
However I am trying to use same macro in the another file and the problem I am facing is there a lot more named ranges and I want to run the macro for only selected NAMED RANGE. In this case 2 Named Range / 24 Named range.
What part of code do I need to change and to what to make it work for just 2 named ranges ?

Merge two columns into one list in excel
I would like to combine List1 and List2 into a 3rd named range called List3. I was wondering if this were possible without using any additional cells/columns (i.e. I don't want to use Column C like in the example shown in the link above).
Here's the formula from the example:
Code:
=IFERROR(INDEX(List1,ROWS(C1:$C$1)),IFERROR(INDEX(List2,ROWS(C1:$C$1)-ROWS(List1)),""))
I've played around with it, but could not come with any that worked.

I am working on a chart which is updated every week. For clearness purposes, I would like to get the chart titles integrating the date of the last update. For instance, if the data are updated on the 13/06/07, I would like the chart title to be automatically: Last updated on 13/06/07 and so on.

I'm having a lot of trouble automating charts from my VB.NET program. I'm simply graphing one series of data as a time series that must maintain its order as the user filters the data, deletes some data, etc. Because of the changes the user can make, I am using a named variable with the offset command to maintain a dynamic range. I am aware of how to manually build the graph by supplying the series range =workbookname.xls!namedvariable, but I can't figure out how to supply this to my chart from my VB program. The following is some of my VB.NET code.
xlapp.names.add("graph" & i, "=OFFSET(Hidden!$A$20,0," & 1 + i * 3 & ",Hidden!$A$20,1)")
chartrange= ?
chartPage.ChartWizard(Source:=chartRange, HasLegend:=False, Title:=ParameterNames(i) & " Time Series")
I can supply more code if needed, but figured this would give a general idea of what I am trying to do. This has to work across multiple Office platforms so I am using late binding.

I have a Defined Dynamic Name which is used to select my data. How do I call that when I create a chart in excel within the data source, so that the data source always refers to this dynamic range.
I have data A B C D E
1 2 3 4 5
9 4 5 6 7
this is so the series names will be the row and for each series the rows represent the data within each of the columns. I have a dynamic range that always selects the whole range called chartdata. How do I put that in the data source when it asks me in Excel 2007 as there is no wizard for seprate x and y ranges in this version.

Produce a chart (not a problem) that can be updated should the length of the X and Y data change?
This may not even need to be a macro, if it is possible to have a chart whose X and Y axis updates depending on the contents of a column?
If you search through the history of even this forum you will see quite a lot of people are looking for this solution.

I need to create a page (call it a dashboard) in excel whereby drop down fields (doesn't have to be drop downs, just how I imagine it to work at the moment), are used to refer to information in another worksheet, which updates several charts on the dashboard.
So, for example, I have several additonal tabs in the spreadsheet called 'Company 1', 'Company 2' etc, which in each tab contains information (monthly results) in exactly the same layout and format. However, on the front page, I would like to be able to select 'Company 1' (or 'Company 4') and then sub-select 'March 2014' results within that, referring to the data in the 'Company 1' tab. If possible, it would be handy to have this information displaying in a grid on the dashboard, which updates when you change between months and/or company. This could be the source data for the chart.

I am having an issue with looping through data ranges. Below is a subset of my macro. What I require is for LegendRng to stay the same and DataRng to move after each loop.
However everytime the vba runs through a loop, the previous range is recorded i.e. the source data for the chart is "A1:D5" instead of "A1:D1, A5:D5").

I am using defined names to build a chart. This is working fine, but I also would like to use a defined name to control the +/- fields for the error bars. The defined names I have set up are correct, and I am able to enter them into the sorce data form but Excel does not display them.

I have an excel sheet populated with loads of values. There is a space between each set of data. I need to draw a graph for each section and i cant work out how to do it. I have attached the sheet in question. The gap between each column has "space" written on row, which is needed to prevent it being deleted. The drawing of the graphs needs to be automated as there is going to be 100's of sheets containg lots of data. The column size of each section can change so it needs to be dynamic.

I want to find the number of similar values contained in a column based on a date range I specify.
I have a data set that's formatted like the following (you can see the full data set at [URL] but I've hidden the irrelevant columns and highlight the relevant ones)
[Code] .......
I want to use this data to create two types of graphs. One showing the ratio including all values in the Status column. There are 4 total (Open, Lost, Won, Won-Job Cancelled). I want another which excludes the "open" status from the ratio figure. I've create some images demonstrating what I want to accomplish at [URL] .....
Additionally, I want to be able to specificy date ranges for these charts. Specifically 0-30 days from todays date, 30-90 days and older than 90 days.
I want to accomplish this using Google Sheets (the latest version) and know how to use the graph total. It's just creating the data the way I need it which is proving to be the most challenging.

I'm trying to dynamically populate ranges to facilitate dynamic charts being generated.
I use excel 2010 at work, and 2011 for mac at home.
Dynamic chart ranges populated from named ranges as selected in nested indirectly sourced validation lists
I want any selection made in a dependent validation list which contains a list of named ranges to trigger a worksheet_change event which copies the range the selection points to and pastes it into a dynamic range in another column, beginning as a specified cell.I've tried using this, put together from some code examples from similar, but different issues.
Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Not Intersect(Target, Me.Range("B2")) Is Nothing Then
Range(Range("B2").Value).Copy
Range("P2").Paste
End If
End Sub
Trouble is, I don't really understand this code. It doesn't appear to do anything when I make a worksheet change in "B2", but I don't know exactly what it is. I suspect that perhaps the fact that "B2" is validated from an indirect source might be difficult?

I have a named range that populates a list box. The spreadsheet has a macro that allows additions to the list. The macro will expand the range to include the addition but the List box does not show the update unless I save the workbook and reopen. How can I accomplish this without having to close and reopen?

I am trying to make a UDF that searches for a header, grabs everything under the header, and pulls it somewhere else. My UDF has three parameters:
1) Output_Range: the named range where the parameters will be pulled to
2) Header: the header to search for in order to copy the data underneath it
3) WorkbookName: the name of the workbook to search in
It looks like this:
VB:
Function LoadParameters(Output_Range As Range, Header, WorkbookName As String)
MyTimer = Timer

Dim HeaderCell, HeaderCellEnd, HeaderRange, Output_Range

I have some named ranges that refer to 5 pieces of data organized into a row. For example, the name MyNamedRange might refer to $C$5:$C$10.
I am trying to loop through each column and get the values in MyNamedRange, then change corresponding values in a different named range. However, when I try to use Offset to access the subsequent columns of MyNamedRange, it doesn't work. It only gets the value of the first column right, the rest return <EMPTY>.

How do I go about using named ranges instead of cell names(ie A4:A9)
Private Sub UserForm_Activate()
Dim lngRow As Long
Dim intIndex As Integer
UserForm1.ComboBox1.Clear 'Clear combobox
lngRow = 2 Do While Sheet1.Range("a" & lngRow).Value <> ""
For intIndex = 0 To UserForm1.ComboBox1.ListCount - 1
If UserForm1.ComboBox1.List(intIndex) = Sheet1.Range("a" & lngRow).Value
Then
Goto NextRow
End If
Next intIndex
UserForm1.ComboBox1.AddItem Sheet1.Range("a" & lngRow).Value
NextRow:
lngRow = lngRow + 1
Loop
End Sub
I wanted to change "a" to the defined range "search"?

At the moment I have to click in the cell and then look at the cells used and look across to the title of the rows.
So for example, performance = D3*D4*D5*D6
I would like, performance = vehicles*availabliity*utilisation*TKM.
That is easy if I have just 1 option. But what if I have 3 options? Naming each cell would be a way to do it but pretty laborious, is there a 'smart' way to use named ranges here?

I'm creating a KPI spreadsheet which utilizes named ranges to allow for Dynamic charting. I've created the first data input sheet for one of the 10 areas being KPIed. The sheet has 60 named ranges in it.
The goal is to duplicate the existing sheet (Area 1A) 10 times and adjust the named ranges and formulas within the named ranges according to the sheet names.
Is there a way to accomplish this without having to manually recreate or edit every named range for each new sheet?

I want a sumIF function (based on three criteria) to fill the values of cells in a column so long as there are values in the cells in the column before that one. I was working with trying a loop, but have been shown a faster way is using the With function.
There are four named ranges that all exist on a separate sheet in the file: Crude, Location, Year and Volume. Based on the first three columns of the file I wish to have an output for the sum of volume based on crude, location and year.
Right now, my output simply returns the total sum of the "volume" range in each cell in the output column.
For example, if total sum of values in the volume column is 100 then my output column currently looks like:
100
100
100
100
etc...
Here is my code including the named ranges:

I created a simply macro that will adjust the headings of a group of cells as follows.
But if I add a row/column to the sheet, it will then of course attempt to place the headings in the wrong cells.
I have now given that group of cells/range a Name of "AR_Buckets". But I'm not certain how to modify the macro to ensure it always places the information in the correct place.

I am having problems getting the code below to follow my intentions. I have 2 files. I have a temporary file that holds all the data that I need. I have a destination file that needs to have data copied into it. In the temp file, I have data for several dates and product types. What I intend to do is to do a vlookup in VBA to look for the date and the product type in the temp file and copy the appropriate data to the destination file. I have numerous named ranges both in my temp file and my destination file. For the code below, I wanted to make a loop to find the date in the temp file that is listed in the destination file. Once this is done, I wanted to find the product type in the temp file that is listed in the destination file. If both conditions exist, then copy a certain range from the temp file to the destination file. My intention is evident in the code, but I don’t think that I am putting in the correct “code format”.

(Using Office 2003 on XP Pro) I have two named ranges that I want to union into one big named range so that I can use the big named range in a validation table. Unfortunately the big range does not appear on the list of named range so I switched to VBA to try and lick this but really I was hoping a non-VBA solution exists. Exploring possible VBA solutions, here is what I have so far:
