Need a pop up solution!
Hi everyone. I am an Excel user since ver 2.1, but have a question.
Maybe an old dog needs to learn a new trick! ;) Anyway, here is the situation. I built an enterprise dashboard using Excel, and next to my charts, I have data tables displayed from other tabs via the Camera tool. This is because the data is in dynamic ranges that change daily (e.g. display last 30 days sales, etc.) My boss hates the data being displayed by the chart, and want them in another place. I know I could set up hyperlinks, but what I really would like to do is click or hover to display the data table. I also am limited in that macros won't do, since my boss hates to see the enable macro box come up. SO, what I thought I'd do is put the camera tool objects into cell comments. Well, that doesn't work. Does anyone have any other great ideas? Thanks for your help! MP |

BTW, this should be for Excel 2003.

hi, MP !
... next to my charts, I have data tables displayed from other tabs via the Camera tool ... the data is in dynamic ranges that change daily (e.g. display last 30 days sales, etc.) ... boss hates the data being displayed by the chart, and want them in another place ... what I really would like to do is click or hover to display the data table ... limited in that macros won't do, since my boss hates to see the enable macro box come up. ... what I thought I'd do is put the camera tool objects into cell comments. Well, that doesn't work. Does anyone have any other great ideas? [it's only *wild-ideas*, but]... i think you could define a [dynamic] name using desref(...) and others... and *assign* that name [in the formula bar] to your pasted image [with camera tool] sorry if i can not be more accurated, but i can't *see* from, where and what [tabs/ranges/rows/columns/...] so... if any doubts [or further information]... would you please comment ? regards, hector. |

Thanks, Hector. Actually, the cells I used the camera tool to create a display are dependent on a dynamic range. Still, it won't let me put that into a cell comment. I can do it if I create a static picture from the range, but I need the live update capability of the camera tool. Does that help? |
