Chart-VBA add-in
I see a lot of geniuses giving advise and their web sites with
excellent material. Why dont we all create "The" charting add-in? I got many useful routines and an interface for something I call the "Chart Loopster" [under development] but am too busy [software is my hobby, not profession] and do not have the incredible genius of the MVPs. Do you think you could seamlessly add to my book for absolute novices in Excel-- http://vgupta1000.tripod.com/Vol_1_2.zip ? Something on custom charts, dynamic charts, but nothing too complex... |

Chart-VBA add-in
If there were one "genius", there could be one charting add-in. However, as
you say, there are lots of geniuses and near geniuses giving advice and creating add-ins. Different people have different tastes and opinions about appropriate colors and other formatting, and about which techniques to use to achieve certain charting effects. Just look at all the different ways people have described making a horizontal line across a chart, or fudging a broken axis. My own approach to add-ins is to make a lot of small utilities, so users can pick and choose the ones they want, and ignore the rest. Regarding charting techniques, I generally present my technique, and if another author has a different approach, I include a link, so viewers can decide which version to try. Regarding your book, why not format it in html, so it is readily browsed on the internet, and include links to other sites for topics you haven't covered or won't cover? I'm not going to bother downloading and processing a zip file. - Jon ------- Jon Peltier, Microsoft Excel MVP Tutorials and Custom Solutions http://PeltierTech.com _______ "VJ" wrote in message ups.com...
