Hello
While making a chart I wish to combine two values from two seperate cells to make one value to send to a chart. In this case it is the values for the columns named S3 and S4. Enclosed is the ss please refer to sheet 3. I don't know the formula for adding the two and displaying. It's a bit confusing this ss formatting. The S3 col are L and S4 is N. I don't know if I have to make the calc show in a cell or just do it on the fly. Using the chart wizard it's the series values I believe is where a formula could go. thanks for any help given, Steve |

Sorry, looks like I can't do an attachment. That makes it hard.
The value for S3 is =Sheet3!$L$6:$L$8 and S4 is =Sheet3!$N$6:$N$8 I hope that's enough to go on.

How do you want to "combine" the values? Sum? Average? Adjust the
formula in the cell that the chart uses for its data. - Jon ------- Jon Peltier Peltier Technical Services, Inc. http://peltiertech.com/ SteveZmyname wrote: Sorry, looks like I can't do an attachment.

thanks for the reply.
I wanted to add the two. A formula something like =data!(SUM(L6:N6)). One issue is I have merged cells. The first cell to add is over L and M. While the 2nd is over N and O. How do I get around this issue? thanks for any help Steve "Jon Peltier" wrote: How do you want to "combine" the values? Sum? Average?

=SUM(data!L6:N6), but most users here would recommend avoiding merged cells
like the plague. -- David Biddulph "SteveZmyname" wrote in message ... thanks for the reply. I wanted to add the two. A formula something like =data!(SUM(L6:N6)). One issue is I have merged cells.
