Realtime Graph
 

Hi

I have a cell with a DDE link from another program, which is sample data I
need to produce a real time graph of.

To do this I need to copy the value of the cell, A1, and paste it into B1, a
second later I need to copy the value of A1 into B2 and so on. I can then
produce a real time graph from the information in column B.

Any ideas

Thanks in advance.

This VBA macro should work. Copy the following procedure to the sheet module
in which your data resides . . .

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Excel.Range)
Dim Rng As Range
Set Rng = Range("B65536").End(xlUp)
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("A1")) Is Nothing Then
Rng.Offset(1, 0).Value = Range("A1").Value
End If
End Sub

I apologize. Here's a slight modification to the code I just posted.

Option Explicit

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Excel.Range)

Dim Rng As Range

Set Rng = Range("B65536").End(xlUp)

If Not Intersect(Target, Range("A1")) Is Nothing Then
If Range("B1").Value = vbNullString Then
Range("B1").Value = Range("A1").Value
Else
Rng.Offset(1, 0).Value = Range("A1").Value
End If
End If

End Sub

Thanks John,

However, I could not get it to work. I created a module as you suggested and
pasted the code in. My link in A1 is changing every second, but I am getting
nothing in column B.

Including "Option Explicit" also makes no difference.

The version of excel I am running is 2003.
