The procedure as posted is pretty simple. It can certainly be made as
complicated as you'd like, changing the chart type (I think it uses the
default, so you could change your default to make different types), even
making multiple charts from a single selected range. Without knowing
details, it's not easy to make specific recommendations, and of course, this
starts to become a development project once it starts to grow custom
features.

Hey Jon,

Wow thanks for those links. The one I found that will work the best is
the
Interactive Chart Creation as anyone can pick where they want the chart to
go
and what data boom done.

Few questions though. It does come up as a built-in chart style which I
would prefer either a column or pie chart instead is there a way in the
macro/vbe to change so instead of the built-in one thats in there to make
a
different kind of chart instead so I don't have to change the chart type
after its created.

As well for my weekly report I do end up having around 4 different charts
plotting 2 stats on each. Is there a way with this interactive setup to
generate 4 different charts at one time like that instead of doing one and
then just following the same set up and doing it again to 3 more?

Thanks again

I don't think a macro would be any easier than setting up a worksheet- or
formula-based solution, especially if you're not familiar with VBA. There
are no "easy macro setups" if you don't know how to set up the problem.
VBA
isn't magic, it only does what Excel can do, but allows you to do it
automatically.

I suggest you refer to the tutorial I cited, perhaps after reading about
dynamic charts and defined names.

I am creating a Dashboard report for my Accounting department at work
and
I
have a weekly one I set up with links for the series of a chart to
another
worksheet. Easy. But what I am trying to do is instead of creating a
new
one each week by changing the link location for the data is there a
way I
can
just enter in a range of dates and the charts automatically change and
filer
in the new data without me having to change the link in the series
where
the
data entry is coming from??
