Sum of data on a per month basis
I can't figure out how to do this. I think SUMPRODUCT might be the key but I can not figure it out. I need to extract the monthly sums of expenses incurred from a range of data. The data set has two columns Date and Price. The data changes throughout the year and I have had to adjust the sums ranges by hand and it has led to some human error on my part. Using functions I want to be able to automatically get total each month without manually having to adjust the ranges in the data set. I am using Excel 2007. Thanks so much. Suppose your dates are in column D and your expenses in co...

Range formula possible to update summary page with new entries when new sheets created?
I'm not sure what this would entail but is there a way to fix our summary pages to include formulas or whatever that more automatically update links from the sheets linked to them when new sheets are added to each workbook? The reason I ask is because my colleagues are dealing with four workbooks that each have about 15 worksheets minimum. Every time a new employee is hired, a new employee sheet is created by copying one from another employee and modifying the entries to reflect the new person. Unfortunately, the summary sheet doesn't automatically include working links when they co...

How do I globally set all the data point colors to black without picking each series in turn and setting a custom color.

How do I link columns so data flows from 1 column to another like.
Is there a way to link columns in Excel, so that data that's entered flows from one column to the next? There's a function similar to this in Quark. Anybody know anything about this?

Changes on Chart
I am aware that any change in the data table will automatically changes the linked chart, is there any programm in Excel that can do this the other way around, i.e that gives the possibility of changing the shape of the chart on the chart itself rather than on the data table so that data table changes automatically with the change on the shape of the graph? -- tarig Hi, In older version of excel, not xl2007, the chart had a goal seek function. You could grab a point and move it in either the horizontal or vertical plane. The linked cell would automatically be updated. For an xy-scatt...

Exclude data from field, when another field equals a certain numbe
Hello, I have 2 fields. I have Job # and GL #. I need to exclude from the GL field, values that are 1234, but ONLY if the Job # = 999999. I have tried using this formula in the criteria of the GL# field in my query: IIf([Job #]=999999,<>1234,[GL #]) and instead of 999999 still showing up in the query and excluding GL# 1234, 999999 doesn't show up at all!

Opening disk containing Excel worksheet

Data Charting Correctly
We are working with a table that has a Sell Price, List Price, and Profit Margin. When we try to chart it, it looks like it is adding the "Sell Price" and "List Price". The "Sell Price" which is in row 1, is plotted correctly. The "List Price" looks to be the total of the two. The "Profit Margin" is plotting with the "List Price". Is it in the way we have selected the table to chart? Does anyone have any suggestions? Choose the line chart option in the first column, not the stacked line chart option in the second. - Jon ...

Organization chart
I'm trying to build an org chart from an access 2000 database using Visio 2000. The database contains Greek text fields. The text appears as question marks. Anyone know how to do this ? I'm not sure you will get answers from this forum... I have asked the same question in multiple ways, but no one ever addresses the basic question: Why can't Visio access, use, print, view, or otherwise deal with any other font type than TTF, and even if it a TTF, only the first 256 characters of the font can be used (which makes useless the Unicode logic). (see previous post). I have had to w...

Data Validation to range names for Chart Source Data
I have 15 Named Ranges. I'd like to have a drop down above one chart to select one of the names and the chart updates. How? Please help It sounds like a pivot chart would give you the dynamic ability you are looking for. If you build a Pivot table and chart you can drag the series that you would like into the data range or have them on top to filter by. Another option would be to use an advanced filter for your data. Using this would also change the chart as you changed the filter. Tim "Candyman" wrote: > I have 15 Named Ranges. I'd like to have a drop down ...
