Programmatically insert a graphic?
I have a spreadsheet where I want to create a traffic light view of the
data. For example: Value 1-3 = red circle Value 4-6 = yellow circle Value 7-10 = green circle The formula I'm working with looks like this: =IF(Sheet1!B2<4,red,IF(Sheet1!B2<7,yellow,green)) The red, yellow, and green items need to pull graphic symbols which is where I'm struggling. How can I do that? |

Here's just an idea of a VBA module that could do the work for you:
Sub Circles() Sheets("Sheet1").Activate Select Case ActiveSheet.Range("B2") Case Is = 7 'Change 20, 20, 50, 50 to adjust the size and location of the circles ActiveSheet.Shapes.AddShape(msoShapeOval, 20, 20, 50, 50).Select Selection.ShapeRange.Fill.Solid Selection.ShapeRange.Fill.ForeColor.SchemeColor = 11 Selection.ShapeRange.Line.Visible = msoFalse Case Is = 4 ActiveSheet.Shapes.AddShape(msoShapeOval, 20, 20, 50, 50).Select Selection.ShapeRange.Fill.Solid Selection.ShapeRange.Fill.ForeColor.SchemeColor = 5 Selection.ShapeRange.Line.Visible = msoFalse Case Else ActiveSheet.Shapes.AddShape(msoShapeOval, 20, 20, 50, 50).Select Selection.ShapeRange.Fill.Solid Selection.ShapeRange.Fill.ForeColor.SchemeColor = 10 Selection.ShapeRange.Line.Visible = msoFalse End Select End Sub -------- Cheers, Anony "Kent McPherson" wrote: I have a spreadsheet where I want to create a traffic light view of the data.
