I have read quite a few tutorials but none of them really reference what I am trying to achieve. Essentially I have one column with 2 options: "Compliance" and "Improvement". I am trying to make a dynamic chart based on the number of occurrences. From my understanding you need to use a "Named Range" and "Count" but I can not find any information on how you combine the two to make a 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.
1) i have office 2003 on a laptop. within powerpoint, i can create a 'microsoft excel chart 11' object. to create a link to the excel data source, do i have to go through the odbc sql setup? it works, but i don't want my powerpoint to be dependent on some excel file somewhere. what are the other options to insert/make a functional pivot chart in powerpoint with the data also within powerpoint? the data as sheet option does not result in the chart being a pivot, it's just a plain chart. it has to be a proper object, not an image paste or a chart that updates links with the excel file open.
2) i have office 2007 on my other laptop. i can not find any suitable object to choose from to make a pivot chart in powerpoint. what's the best way to go about in 2007 version?
3) am i going about this the wrong way with the objects? should i be after vba code?
I want to do is be able to take The data from one week for every store and compile it into a chart to show a summary of the company as a whole. I know that I can reference from that chart to each worksheet the values I want, but how would I give that chart the ability to update each time I add a weeks worth of data.
I have attached a file that shows what I am talking about. The sheets labeled Waterloo, Mogadore, through Green are the sheets for each store.
I want to take the last weeks data and put it into a chart as seen on Sheet1. Then when I add data for 3/21/09 I want to make a new chart without retyping the data into the chart.
I have never used charts in excel unfortunately. I just finished watching a few tutorials but still a little confused. I have a WS with a list of items I want to make various charts of how do you make a chart that adjusts when new items are added? (thus dynamic data) Do you need a macro to do this or is it just standard by defining a range within that sheet?

I need make line chart from 3 series. First two are series1 and series2. Third is percent change between 2010 and 2009 years every month (series3). First two are easy, but third is very difficult for me, becouse I haven't row with percent change and I can't haven't it in my exercise.
How can I make it without new row with percent change?
I tried it with Data Source in chart, also formula in Name Manager, but it doesn't succeed
I would like to update a chart after I have updated the underlying data just by clicking a button and displaying the updated date in the chart. Does anyone know how to do this? Currently I am having to manually click on the graphs line in the chart, which highlights the columns data, then manually extend this for the chart to update. And then I am manually typing in a date cell in the chart. There MUST be a cool way to do this.
In a chart series, I have and end number for a row that I have been updating manually everytime I enter a new fuel tank fillup. Is there a simple way with the chart series to just say always go to the last data in the specified column?
See my example here, instead of the 137 in the series is there someway to just say "last data row"?
I'm trying to plot a chart of some sort in Excel to display 4 angles that different blood vessels branch off the aorta. Ideally I'd like to input the values of these angles which would vary from patient to patient and have them be displayed in some kind of chart. The chart I'm hoping to achieve would be cirular with the 4 angles represented by spokes which extend out all of the same length. I've attached a rough sketch to show what I'm trying to achieve and I'd be hoping to be able to change each angle in a worksheet and have the chart update to reflect.
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 have created a spreadsheet which uses data validation to allow a user to select a company, start Date, end date, and projected months in order to output different figures. I have attached a spreadsheet to this post in case that was hard to understand.
Since there is data validation, indexing, and matching going on, as different selections are made, various tables change as a result. What I mean as you open the example sheet and start messing around with the data validation boxes.
The problem I am encountering now, is creating a chart that will also keep changing as the user changes their selections in the data validation boxes. I am unsure if this is even possible, but I figured it was worth a shot to ask. On the example sheet, I have included a graph similar to the one I want, but it only contains data in a certain range of cells, rather than dynamically changing to accommodate whatever data is outputted.
Here is what I am looking for in the graph:
1. Whatever dates are selected by the user in the data validation boxes, along with the projected dates will be on the x-axis.
2. The PMPM figures associated with the selected dates, and the projected dates on the y-axis.
3. Ability to make different selections from the data validation boxes and still have a dynamic chart that keeps updating itself.
we all have a team, and we are scored on calls, appointments, demos, proposals, and revenue. Rather than asking us to do one or all of these metrics, I would like to have a bulls eye chart that could show people their bonus eligability, so if for example 50% of the circles are touching the bulls eye circle, you would be able to adjust what you need to work on for bonus.
Here is a sample graph.

I have a project coming up where I will receive tables in a certain format. I want to be able to create a macro that well create a chart based on a single inputted cell (start of data). The chart will have 4 series and five values per series. See the link below for sample data! The first data point is not in the same place in the sheet, but the table will have the rest of the data relative to that!
I know this has been discussed a number of times, but here is my problem I have three charts in my workbook. I want to attach a macro so that when the chart is clicked it returns to Sheet - Home. I have using the following: 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.
is it possible to put a message box in a VBA code so that the macro only runs once, else the worbook needs to reopened again for it to work. Is this the best way from preventing the macro to run again?
If i have multiple users, there is always a chance one might accidently press the command button twice.
I am trying to figure out how to make a macro run just once a day -- the first time i open a workbook and then no matter how many times I open that workbook again it does not run......... I know how to get to run automatically when i open the book - just not how to keep it from running again THAT DAY.
Then the next day when i open that book again I want it to run again -- once......and so on..................
I've got a PDF file that I was hoping to convert into an Excel sheet, but it doesn't look like that's possible, xince I'm working with only Adobe Reader, not Acrobat. Anyway, I need to compare 1 column of this report to another report that IS in Excel. Is there a way to have a macro compare an Excel file with a PDF??
I am looking for is a macro that will search in column B for some codes,example: 0403874700197 but count only the numbers between the 5th (aka 8 ) and prelast (aka 12th number,in this case 9,),so we have the code 87470019. Then every code on column B has it's D column wich has some numbers.
So what will the macro do?Take column B,start with line no 1,take the code and search for similiar,counting only from 5th to 12th letter, in all the workbook ,after find all the similiar codes it will see their D columns,sum them to column D at the line wich it find the first code.Then take line No 2,see if the D cell is empty,pass,if not search for similiar codes in column B...and goes on.It's important to delete the numbers to D cells that already has summed!
I have 2 worksheets - "Results" and "Historical". I am trying to record a macro that copies data from "Results" and then pastes into Historical. The data I want to copy will always be in "Results" A1:A10. When I want to update the macro (which will be weekly), I want it to copy A1:A10 and then paste into "Historical". Simple enough. Here is the problem:
Since this will be updated weekly, the first time I update I will want "Results" data copied into "Historical" A1:A10. The next time I update, I want the data copied into "Historical" B1:B10; then C1:C10, etc. Essentially I want the keep a running total of all of my prior data.
So I need the macro to be able to say something like - paste date into the first available column. If there is data in A1:A10, then paste into B, then C, D. How do I make the Macro variable?
Is there a way to make a macro remember my keystrokes? When I record a macro it only remembers the cell number of the box that I clicked and not how I got there. What I would like to do is use ctrl+F to find what I'm looking for and then use the keyboard (2 keystrokes down and 6 keystrokes to the right for example) to arrive at a cell. However when I arrive at a cell, the macro just uses the cell number lets say H20 and doesn't remember how I got there from using the keyboard. What I'm trying to do is create a macro which graphs data from several different worksheets. The problem is the data from the different worksheets isn't the size of the data from which the macro was created. When I run the macro on different worksheets it doesn't graph the data from the same starting points or ending points. If I can't use a use a macro to do this,
I am trying make a macro required a password to run.
I found this code below but not sure how to use it. I would like to be able to run it from a command button.
Sub MPW() Dim My Password My Password = InputBox("Please enter password", "Password Prompt", "********") 'Hardcode password If MyPassword = "password" Then MsgBox "Access Granted", vbInformation, "Access" 'call macro Exit Sub Else
I tried recording a macro to automate some tasks I perform every day between two workbooks. While in one I want to go get data from the other. The problem I'm having is the name of the workbooks I want to run this on changes every time I download my data into Excel. The files always start with the same name but the date gets appended to it. Is there a way to modify the macro to just work with the two books I've got open?
