I have a sheet that has names in column A and a list of subjects in Row 1. Cells B2:BA25 have the scores acheived for each person in each subject. I was thinking of creating a customisable graph where by there would be a dropdown box that could select a persons name and this would populate a bar graph of all that persons scores.
I have a graph that auto updates but sometimes there is only 1 series and sometimes there is 2,3,4, or 5 series. Is there a way to have the graph update accordingly? and only have have the series that are valid be in the key on the graph. Currently the graph keeps all the series in the key even when there isn't any data for it.
Please see attachment. Use sheet 2 for the graph. and use the drop down menu to select catagory. this ia very quick mock up of the concept.

I have a table that has formulas that read off a pivot table. When the pivot table is updated, the other non-pivot table is updated. I created a graph off of the non-pivot table data. I want to do a bar chart, but if data is added to the pivot table (and then through formulas added to my non-pivot table) I want the graph to automatically update with the new fields. I can't figure out how to do this
For example, if my table had Grapes, apples and peaches and their quantities in cell A2:b4 if I choose range a2:b5 I don't get any data in my graph at all, if I choose the correct range a2:b4, I get a bar chart with Grapes, Apples and Peaches and thier quantites. If I added Strawberries to the Pivot table, the non-pivot table would update, but the graph is not grabbing row 5, I have to manually change the range to a2:b5.
I am making a dynamic graph with use of listboxes. Please see attached example.
In the example doc is a graph which is now static. Based on the rows I selected in the table, for store 1 and for february.
What I'd like is that a user can select a store and a month in 2 listboxes and that the graph is dynamically created based on dynamic selection in the table. I think I need to use the OFFSET function and some defined names but I'm not sure how.

Is there a way to create a dynamic chart to automatically run from the most recent Monday to Sunday. So on Monday the entire chart will reset?
View 9 Replies View Relatedi have a graph that i've linked to let's say cells A1:C150
however, my range could sometimes needs to be shrunken to A1:A100 or A1:A40 etc. (the number of rows that are "active" is determined by cell K27)
i'd like for my graph to automatically adjust depending on the number of rows that are filled within the range above. can this be done with formulas and graph manipulations?
i've put in a formula currently that makes the value of the cells that would return 0 into "" but that doesn't seem to do the trick.
I have a database in excel with a lot of tables in which lets a uses a combo box so the user select can view just one table.
I want to be able to create a macro so when a button is pressed, it copies the data into a new workbook and creates a chart so they can do whatever they want without disrupting anything in the original workbook.
I have been able to find code that will export the data and create a chart (see below) but the problem is the range changes from table to table so I need to find a way of changing how the chart picks up the data range.
Sub Chart_New_Book()
Sheets("Temp").Select
Cells.Select
Selection.Copy
Workbooks.Add
ActiveSheet.Paste
Range("A1").Select
Charts.Add
ActiveChart.ChartType = xlColumnClustered
ActiveChart.SetSourceData Source:=Sheets("Sheet1").Range("A1:C10")
ActiveChart.Location Where:=xlLocationAsObject, Name:="Sheet1"
End Sub
So at the moment when charting ony cells A1:C10 will be plotted no matter what the size of the table is and making the target range bigger only sees the blank cells being plotted.
This may be a tough one. Through a button, I am trying to create a popup window displaying an excel chart, viewed always on top, dynamically linked to my spreadsheet data. The idea would be to see it evolve as I input data, and be able to open as many as I want. I guess I could create a macro to paste/clear the graph, but a pop up window would appear more professional and more user friendly.
View 2 Replies View RelatedWhat I have done is entered code to auto generate the date in column O whenever data is entered or altered in column A. Here is that code:
VB:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("A:A")) Is Nothing Then _
Target.Offset(0, 14).Value = Now
End If
End Sub
What I am trying to do now, is create a column that will take the information from O and do a sort of COUNTIF function that will count how many items of data were entered on a certain date by the day. For a clearer example, I want it to tell me how many items were entered/altered on 7/23. But I also want it to continuously calculate it for each date after that. Preferably automatically, but if a macro is needed I can create an update button.
Once it can achieve that I would like to create a dynamic graph that will automatically (or via macro button) update to show the last 5 days. It should display the date and how many items were entered that day.
I am using Office 2007.
I am in the process of setting up some graphs. The graphs will show the last 6 months of data so they move as each month is goes. I saw a slick way of doing this using the count function but this did not quite fulfill my needs. What I was looking for is to be able to input the start month in a cell. The cell would be part of the function within the formula. I created a simplified version of the spreadsheet below.

Then I created my names using the ctrl-F3

I then created the graph I wanted and wanted to use the formula =SERIES(Sheet1!$B$3,!chtCat,!chtIssuesReported,1). This kept getting an error indicated nothing really. It basically says there is something wrong with my Series function. I have a working version of a similiar worksheet I have been basing my entries on. They look almost identical but mine is failing. I also created a new file and tried this and it still fails. I can run the formula evaluator within Excel 2010 against the !chtCat and !chtIssuesReported names and they both return the correct value (which equals areas on the spreadsheet). I have also tried to enter the spreadsheet name and a tab in front of the names to get them to work and still get an error. Basicall I am trying to create the graph below (this grpah is using the hard coded locations)

I want to create a dynamic line graph using week and year numbers stated in another sheet.
e.g.
Start Year - 2012
End Year - 2014
Start Week - 3
End Week - 12
The top 2 rows above my graph data are as below:
Year - 2012 2012 2012
Week - 5 6 7 etc.
This works fine if the start and end year are the same but if it's greater than one year, it doesn't recognise that.
I would like to make a scatter graph that will graph the attached. The score would be on the Y axis and the birth date would be on the X axis. This is simple to do by itself but what I would like to do in addition to this is to have the top 25% of the scores a single color, the middle 50% of the scores a second color and then the bottom 25% of the scores to be a third color. And if it is possible to have the ID visible when you move your cursor over a given dot in the graph. Currently when I make a scatter graph the X,Y coordinates show when I hoover the cursor over a dot.
View 7 Replies View RelatedHow can i make a graph that will graph against time? lets say i have a bank balance like this:
1/2/2000 $500
1/3/2000 $600
3/12/2000 $400
there may be more than one entry on any one given day, or there may not be an entry for 2 weeks. How can i graph the running balance in a way that it will show the timeline just as a calendar year(or however long i selected) and the points are plotting according to their date, not just equally spaced out.
I want to use a line graph to display an amount over time - that's the easy part. On the other hand, I would like to have to group the lines based on a value.
A short example:
Imagine you own 3 different stores and you're selling oranges. So your table looks like this:
http://img179.imageshack.us/my.php?image=orangeshm4.jpg
Now I'd like to have one graph (3 different graphs won't work as the rows increase -I need to select the whole column as data source):
Date on the x axis,
Oranges sold on the y axis,
and one line per store (e.g. a green one for store A, a red one for B and a blue one of C, doesn't matter).
I have a range which will change in size & in content, & I want this to be a Named Range at whatever size it is.
Reason I want to is because I want to make a Validation List with this dynamic range. I also want a Validation list which lists the content of 2 or more dynamic ranges which may or may not be on the same worksheet - is this possible?
i.e.
First dynamic range: called "Milestones" at A11
Second dynamic range: called "Activities" at A25
& make a Validation list that will list content of both
I would like to replace the blue bit of this Dynamic Named Range (DNR) with an INDIRECT formula in order to modify the starting point for the DNR: =OFFSET(DATA!$C$60,0,0,20,1). Unfortunately, I can’t seem to get my INDIRECT formula to work in order to use it to replace the blue bit above: INDIRECT("'"DATA"'!&ADDRESS(MATCH('SHEET1'!AC8,DATA_Date,0)+22,3)"). The orange bit of the formula above returns a value of 60, therefore the ADDRESS formula should return $C$60, that can then feed into the INDIRECT and act as the equivalent of DATA!$C$60. But it doesn’t.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a question on the above but can't seem to find a solution. There are two ways that I can find for dealing with dynamic lists via data validation:-
1) Offset and match, cavet being the data must be sorted a-z
2) Have lists for each potential selection
Is there any way to get around 1 without having to do 2? E.g. Got two columns of data, unsorted, and a list from which the user can choose from. The user chooses from the list in first cell, in the second cell require the dynamic list to return all the values accordingly?
I have a dynamic table which is linked to a couple of charts. The table must remain dynamic.
I needed to add two new columns to the table, "Focus Area" and "Category". I need a drop down list in the "Category" column to be dependent on the item selected from a drop down menu in "Focus Area".
I can get the first row of the dynamic table to do this.... however; subsequent rows all lock the drop down list in the "Category" column to the same choices regardless of what is chosen in the "Focus Area" list.
Is there a way to make dynamic drop downs within a dynamic table?
I have a X-Y graph with 602 data points. My x scale is a counter from 1 to 602 and the Y is a decreasing set of numbers. When I hover my mouse over the points on the graph (I zoomed the graph) My first 3 points are all labeled as Point "1". At the end of my graph, my last 3 points are labeled 599,601,602, it skips 600.

I am creating a graph with a wide range of values (0.06 - 300). The smaller values are barely visible on my column graph. I have tried all of the tricks I know. Any way to get the smaller values to show up instead of just hovering towards the bottom of the graph?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI need to set up a graph (smooth line chart possibly) with an (x axis) that are not regular intervals. I've attached an example.
the amounts would be (y axis) and the corresponding dates (x axis).
That would be great to start with. Then I have one of these sheets for each month, can there be a continuous graph made using each month or does it need to be individual graphs.

My macro prduces some text ang a graph on the screen and I can print the result.
Ok so far. But when I run this macro in a different screen resolution, the layout of the page is disturbed: the graph is on the wrong place and the dimensions of the graph are different.
Of course I can drag and resize the graph and include this proces also in the macro but I think this is not the right way. My question is: are in VBA commands which can fix the graph to a location on the sheet/screen and adjust the graph to the requested heighth and width?
I know that to show a tab in VBA you can write worksheet("NameOfTheTab").select
However, it does not work when the tab is just graph.
