another for the experts
I have now figured out my VLOOKUP problem, so let me proceed with my troubles.
I have a sheett of data that represents the entire human genome, organized in ascending order by chromosome. The list is around 9500 rows, and consists of 9 columns. The first is always going to be my x series (the whole point of this is to make a dynamic scatter plot), and each subsequent column is a log2 value, for 1 of 8 individual data sets, which represent my y series. I know how to keep the x series constant, and choose which y series i want via a combo box and linked cell, with the help of an offset formula. This works great for all 9500 data points, and I can graph each column against the x series no problem. I am, however, running into trouble if I try to implement a second combo box/linked cell that allows me to choose to graph an individual chromosome. I realize I need dynamic ranges for this, as the SERIES formula is essentially uneditable, so any help is appreciated. wazooli |

Hi Wazooli,
Chart Selector at http://edferrero.m6.net/Content/ChartSelector.zip has what you need. You should be able to adapt it for your purposes easily enough. Does the human genome really fit on one spreadsheet ?!!! Ed Ferrero "Wazooli" wrote in message ... I have now figured out my VLOOKUP problem, so let me proceed with my troubles.

Lol - it does if it is sampled at 1:1000000. Anyway, I took a look at your
selector. Not quite what I had in mind. Seemse to me I need to assign dynamic ranges, but I am unsure as to how to do it with what I have.

Hi again,
My chart selector example is dynamic, just add rows or columns and it will grow the ranges to fit. But if you really want to use dynamic ranges, take a look at http://edferrero.m6.net/Content/ChartSelector2.zip In this example i use drop-downs and dynamic ranges with no VBA at all. The problem here is that the column headings are in a one-row many-column range and this needs to be transposed before it can be used in a drop-down list. I have included formulas to dynamically transpose a range in the sheet names "ColList". HTH Ed Ferrero http://edferrero.m6.net/ "Wazooli" wrote in message ...
