Hi all,
I'm having a problem when I want to publish an Excel chart to Web page. I browsed through the Microsoft Knowledge Base, and found the article describing the Post SP3 hotfix that sghould be deployed in order to prevent this problem from reoccurring. I'm not really keen on applying SP3 (currently i'm using Office 2000 SP2) and the hotfix after. I'm not sure this is the right newsgroup to post it to but what I'm looking for is a possible workaround, not applying SP3 nor the hotfix Microsoft is referring to. I wonder if there is another program perhpas that does quite the same as Microsoft Excel, but hasn't got the same problems with publishing charts to the web. Thanks in advance for your quick replies. Stevie. |

What's the problem with publishing of the chart?
Are you able to use VBA? if so, check out the Chart.Export method, which saves a chart as an image file. - Jon ------- Jon Peltier, Microsoft Excel MVP Peltier Technical Services Tutorials and Custom Solutions http://PeltierTech.com/ _______ Stevie wrote: Hi all, I may have asked sth odd or I need to redirect. Could anybody give me a clue as to where I should be looking when I look for a workaround for the problem I described earlier. Some additional information may very well be required: Operating system : Windows XP. Office version: Office 2000 SP2. The page I wanna publish to has been created by myself. I created it under Windows NT. It worked just fine then with Office 2000. It's a page of the company Intranet, so even if I would want to get SP3, they won't install me this (I'm no longer admin of my workstation right now). That's why I'm looking for another program maybe or a workaround within MS Excel. Thanks for your quick replies. Stevie. (Stevie) wrote in message . com...

Hi Jon,
I'm able to use VBA, but I'm not very experienced in using it. If you try and explain it to me, it'll have to be clearer than just telling me to use this Chart.Export method. In fact what I need is this : I have been publishing charts for years now. It's all been ok under Windows NT, using Office 2000. I make updates on a daily basis of these charts on an Intranet website. I'm experiencing the problem explained in the KB linked right below : http://support.microsoft.com/kb/819132 Since it isn't possible to implement SP3 on short term, what I need is a workaround by an excel add-in or another program ... until Office 2003 will be implemented. If the problem could be dealt with using VBA, that's ok with me as well of course... Thanks a lot, Stevie. Jon Peltier wrote in message ... What's the problem with publishing of the chart?

The syntax is quite easy: oChart.Export "C:\My Path\image.gif", "GIF" where oChart is the chart being exported. You can choose from GIF, JPG, PNG, and maybe a few other formats, but I'd urge you not to use JPG, because it wasn't designed for this kind of art work. In your program, you need to identify each chart being exported, plus the path and file name. If you provide a duplicate file name, the Export method happily overwrites the existing chart, without any warning. - Jon ------- Jon Peltier, Microsoft Excel MVP Peltier Technical Services Tutorials and Custom Solutions http://PeltierTech.com/ _______ Stevie wrote: Hi Jon, I'm able to use VBA, but I'm not very experienced in using it.

Hi Jon,
Thanks a lot allready. I'd want to ask you one last question: This code will work also on the charts that have been pusblished beforehand allready. All I need to do is updtae the data with freshly acquired data. I suppose it will work fine without Office 2000, Service Pack 3 and the hotfix Microsoft mentions. Regards, Stevie.

This code works as is for any version of Excel since '97, regardless of Windows version. When the data changes, rerun the macro with that statement in itto export new pictures of the chart. - Jon ------- Jon Peltier, Microsoft Excel MVP Peltier Technical Services Tutorials and Custom Solutions http://PeltierTech.com/ _______ Stevie wrote: Hi Jon, Thanks a lot allready.
