chart disappears
In excel 2007 I have data on a sheet from which I created a chart. I then
moved the chart to its own sheet. I updated the data once a day for a couple days and the chart was also updated. Then one day I open the file and the chart is gone. The sheet it was on is still there. The data sheet is still there, but the sheet is gone (or not visible?) and I can't figure out why or how to get it back. This is happened twice now and is getting quite irritating. Any thoughts? |

I have been unable to reproduce this. I did what you did but my 'day' was
about 1 1/2mins. The chart survived. PLEASE let us know if this happens again. What type of chart; how many data-points; is 'update' adding more points or changing existings ones? best wishes -- www.stfx.ca/people/bliengme "Stuart C." wrote: In excel 2007 I have data on a sheet from which I created a chart.

I am actually having the same problem and it seems to me it occurred after a
windows update. I've tried just about everything including deleting and reinstalling updates, repairing office 2007, and troubleshooting the plug-ins thinking one of them may have caused the problem. I was going to attempt to do a system restore, which I read somewhere solved this issue with another user, but I came across another problem: Windows Vista Service Pack 1 was installed a few days prior and because of the size of the udpate, I only have one other system restore point, none of which are before Excel began to give me problems. At this point, i'm considering reinstalling Office 2007 alltogether. Also, if you create a chart within the worksheet, it displays correctly; the problem arises when you try to create or move a chart into it's own tab.

I have the same problem. I posted the following back in December under the
subject: Chart Drift I have an Excel file which was originally created in an earlier version of Excel. I am currently using Excel 2007, but this file was created back in 1985 so it's been with me through many versions. It simply tracks mutual fund prices by week. Anyway, the charts are created as objects on separate worksheets. Whenever I open the worksheet and go to the charts they drift down and to the right. I can't seem to anchor them. After about half dozen opens some that I haven't repositioned every time have drifted completely out of sight. I recreated a couple of the charts in Excel 2007 to see if that made a difference, but the drift still occurs. Any assistance would be appreciated.Never received any replies."Stuart C." <Stuart wrote in message ... In excel 2007 I have data on a sheet from which I created a chart.

Do you have a printer installed? For some reason, chart sheets seem to need
a printer driver on hand in order to render properly. - Jon ------- Jon Peltier, Microsoft Excel MVP Tutorials and Custom Solutions Peltier Technical Services, Inc. - http://PeltierTech.com _______ "Stuart C." <Stuart wrote in message ...

Changing the default printer to "Microsoft XPS Document" and reinstalling my
printer driver seemed to have solved the problem. "Jon Peltier" wrote: Do you have a printer installed?
