change source data in multiple chartsHi
I have over 30 charts where I need to change the source data and it's taking
ages doing it manually, especially as each chart has 3 or 4 series. Is there
an easy way of doing this, please?
I've tried find and replace, but that doesn;t work
Thanks
We need a little more detail. 1. Are you modifying all the charts to use
the same new range or does each chart use a different new range? Is the
data compact, that is, if you choose the chart wizard and look at the Data
Range tab does the Data Range box contain a simple reference like
=Sheet1!$B$2:$E$7?
Thanks,
Shane

automatically import data from a cell in one workbook to another workbookVersion: 2008
Operating System: Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard)
Processor: Intel
How do arrange for workbook A to import the data from a cell in workbook B? In other words, what formula (address?) should I enter in a cell in workbook A so that it will import the data in a cell from workbook B?
This would be just another formula; start with =+ and then just use the mouse/trackpad to click on the referenced cell (assuming you have both wordbooks open. Be careful of relative/absolute references.

How do I 'spindle' or collect multiple documents in a single fileI used to be able to create chapters, so that discrete documents could be
combined for global changes and unbundled for separate editing/use. Can this
be done?
Word has a master document function but it is notoriously unreliable and can
result in data loss, so is best avoided. Word can work with very large
single documents.

can I sort text data into bins?Hi,
Here's my problem - I hope you can understand it & help:
Let's say I've got a column, A (or row 1, it doesn't matter) tha
contains cells, each with a single word/category that I'm interested i
[example: dog, cat, bird, fish, gerbil] - we can assume that this is m
list of category headers/titles.
Plus I've also got various other columns, A-D (or rows) next to m
column A titles that each contain a list of items, one per cell: [eg
B1=dog + B2=cat, C1=bird + C2=cat + C3=gerbil].
Perhaps it would be clearer if I drew it out (ignore the dashes
they're just t...

Or maybe you deleted it, in which case it is gone if you have saved the
workbook since.

Format all sheets in one WorkbookI would like to add a little something to all the help everyone has
offered on the formatting issue in Excel. If you would like to format
all sheets including (Header, Footer, etc..) you need to make sure and
use the "page setup" under "file" menu, because using the formatting
from the print preview option will only make changes to the sheet you
are currently viewing.
I'm guessing but I think MS wanted to make sure you don't accidentally
format all sheets thru print preview so they make you choose it from
the file menu. It is the same thing as the repeat columns ...

Data Validation #10Hello,
I am using Excel 2003 and am doing a drop down list using Data|Validation. However, I must have the data for my drop down list in the same sheet as my drop down list, otherwise the drop down lsit doesn't work. Am I doing something wrong? I used to be able to put the data in a different sheet. What happened?
Valmont

It's OK to have the list in another sheet,
but then you must name it, e.g. "List1"
(without quotes), and use that name in
the validation box (Allow: List and enter
=List1)

Displaying all data when using a combo boxOkay I have a form, based on one table. My form has two combo boxes on it,
one searches for an employee by building, the other by department. The
results are displayed in a subform beneath the combo boxes. This seems to
work fine. However until you enter a selection into each combo box no
records are displayed. How can I set each combo box to work independently
and/or together to get the desired results? Is there a way I could add
something like an "all" field to both? I would also like the subform to

another operation would the cells then divide in colour?

How do I change font size in multiple text boxes?I am working in Publisher, and I have dozens of text boxes that I want to
change the font size, from say 10 to 8. Is there a way that I can select a
number of them and change them in a batch-style?
Use the Painter tool. Change the first text box, while your cursor is in the
box, click the Painter, click the next text box and so on.
Or open the font scheme dialogue, use or create a font scheme, click each text
box with the text scheme highlighted.

Convert Excel to WordHow can I convert an Excel Workbook with multiple sheets
into a .doc format document?
John,
To my knowledge, you cannot perform a straight conversion from Excel
to Word. However, there are two things that you can do.
1. Open Word, then within word, click File > Open > Under "files of
type" click All. Find the Excel file and click. An option box will
apear to ask if you want to open the entire workbook, or just one
page. The result is messy at best
2. Open Word to a blank document, and copy the excel portion that you
need and paste special it into word as an excel worksheet...
