Charts don't copy with new sheet
I've just started working with Excel 2007 and I'm having a little trouble. I
have a sheet with charts showing data for January. I wanted to create 11 more sheets just like it for the rest of the year. I right click the tab, choose 'Create Copy" and hit OK. A new tab appears just like always but there are no charts! I can copy and paste the charts seperately into the new sheet, but they reference the data in the January tab. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Mac |

Charts don't copy with new sheet
Normally, I just do a CTRL-drag on the sheet tab to copy a sheet in
its entirety (including graphs, which then refer to the cells on the copied sheet). Mind you, I don't have XL2007, so I can't test this out for you. Hope this helps.

Thanks for the reply. I wasn't aware of that way of copying. Unfortunately, I
get the same results. Anyone else?

Charts don't copy with new sheet
It must be a setting somewhere, then. I've been fighting this off and on all
day. Just to be sure... You're saying there are charts on the new page, identical to those on the original page? And they reference cells on the new page?

Charts don't copy with new sheet
Yes the data/charts on the new page are identical, and the series data
references the same data on the new page. I just did a test file, entered 1,2,3,4,5 down colum a, selected all the entries, went to the insert tab, chose line chart. Then did what was in my last post, the new (copy) was identical, except the data series was referencing the same data but on the new sheet. Try it on a new sheet for test purposes.?

Additionally, I tried Pete-UK method, works the same way in 2007. TX Pete,
learned a shorter way to copy sheets! "MacPadana" wrote in message ... It must be a setting somewhere, then. I've been fighting this off and on all day. Just to be sure...

Hi,
It works absolutely fine for me. When I copy the sheet as per your method, the charts appear on the new sheet with the range of cells on the new sheet. -- Regards, Ashish Mathur Microsoft Excel MVP www.ashishmathur.com "MacPadana" wrote in message ...

It means you're using Excel 2007 SP1, not the original Excel 2007. I cannot replicate your problem in Excel 2007 SP1.

Charts don't copy with new sheet
Mike,
I actually tried that last night but for other reasons. It occured to me that I had been working with workbooks created in an older version and I wanted to see if starting fresh made a difference. Unfortunately, it didn't. I just tried again this morning from a fresh startup and still had no luck. I also used the "Get Updates" option from the Resources menue. It found one update and downloaded it but it didn't help this issue. Mac "Mike Middleton" wrote: Mac - It means you're using Excel 2007 SP1, not the original Excel 2007.

Finally got it figured out. In the Advanced options section under Cut, copy,
and paste section, I didn't have the box checked to Copy and paste objects with their parent cells. Can't believe it took this long. Thanks for al the responses everyone.

Hi,
Thanks or sharing the workaround. I did not know that unchecking the box could give rise to this problem. Also, am somewhat surprised that this problem arose because the default setting is a tick in that box -- Regards, Ashish Mathur Microsoft Excel MVP www.ashishmathur.com "MacPadana" wrote in message ...

Yeah...
This was self inflicted. I really hate the paste and insert option buttons so when I turned those off, I must have unchecked this one too. I didn't realize the ramifications.
