Named Range as Chart Source
Hello!,
I am using a named range (dynamic: with offset and counta, to include additional rows automatically) as my chart source (Office 2007). But i noticed that every time I run the chart it changes the source to the range itself (absolute) and not using the source as named range. This is not done through vba. Is there a way that I can use a dynamic named range in a chart (Office 2007)? Thanks, Abdul |

Named Range as Chart Source
You cannot use a named range for the whole data source, you have to have
separate named ranges for each series. -- --- HTH Bob (there's no email, no snail mail, but somewhere should be gmail in my addy) "Abdul" wrote in message ...

Named Range as Chart Source
Of course, with VBA you could do this. In the Sheet1 code module (assuming
thee chart and the data are on Sheet1): Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) ChartObjects(1).Chart.SetSourceData Source:=Range("MyChartRange") End Sub If this fires too frequently (every time a cell is changed), you might try this: Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) If Not Intersect(Target, Range("MyChartRange")) Is Nothing Then ChartObjects(1).Chart.SetSourceData Source:=Range("MyChartRange") End If End Sub - Jon ------- Jon Peltier, Microsoft Excel MVP Tutorials and Custom Solutions Peltier Technical Services, Inc. - http://PeltierTech.com _______ "Bob Phillips" wrote in message ...
