Formatting Data point in Bar Chart
Hi, I'm a research scientist and excel spreadsheets are part of our
livelihood. I could not find a way to change the format of a data point on my bargraph with crosshatching, which patterns were available on the older versions. There are a preset of texture options, but little fishies and tweed are not a simple and professional way to respresent my data. Any suggestions? |

Formatting Data point in Bar Chart
The patterns are still part of Excel, but for whatever reason Microsoft
forgot to add the user interface controls to use them. However, Andy Pope has written a nice little add-in that reinstates this capability: http://www.andypope.info/charts/patternfills.htm - Jon ------- Jon Peltier, Microsoft Excel MVP Peltier Technical Services, Inc. http://PeltierTech.com/WordPress/ _______ "Athena" wrote in message ...
