Can I chart cells with values only........surely the answer is yes????
Gentlemen,
Thanks for help in the past. It has been a while, but i will call on your assistance one more time. Here is the issue: I have transformed a trending-type worksheet 'database' file so that all graphs update automatically when new data is entered to the bottom of the columns. OK, that was easy enough, using Jwalks suggestion on "Naming" the graph specific ranges. This works perfectly, however, with this problem. I have facilitated user data entry by making certain things happen automatically as users type data into the row for new data. The columns that i have put formulas in for this reason (formulas are then copied far down the sheet in that column) appear blank, with no values. The problem is the graphs that reference the ranges with formulas in the blank cells, also graph the cells with formulas. I need to graph ONLY the cells containing values, NOT formulas. I assume there must be a way to do this; it seems to obvious, but i haven't been able to figure it out. An example of one of my range Name formulas is: Name: MEANS_2004 range formula: =OFFSET(Data!$Q$901,0,0,COUNTA(Data!$Q:$Q)-884) (this works great, but the graph is badly skewed because i have formulas below the last row of data in column Q, extending to row 10000) Note: I am only talking about not graphing all the cells below the last row of data. In other words, i am not trying to omit cells with formulas 'within' the range of usable data. I'm sure this is sounding more complicated than it's worth. I think i just need to know if one can graph valued cells only. Any help is greatly appreciated. Take Care All SF |
