Pyramid ChartsDoes anyone know if there is a way to create a pyramid chart with altered
shape to reflect unbalanced info. My chart will represent company
organization which has too many middle management positions. So the typical
pyramid does not illustrate. I want the graphic to show more of a rocket
ship - top portion normal pyramid, middle more tubular and flair out at the
bottom. Any suggestions?

Thanks KCW
Can't you just use a bar chart? People will tend to focus on the fancy
shape, and wonder how you made it, and forget the data it's supposedly
showing.

chart in excel like google finance chartI've been playing around with google finance and am wondering if a
chart like that can be implemented in excel. Some of the features I'm
very interested in is the ability to be able to select a time window
and chart the trend. I need to create a chart that is basically
identical to the google and yahoo finance charts. Is this possible at
all in excel or is this an impossible task and I should look
elsewhere. If impossible what are some suggestions for accomplishing
this?
Thanks,

Chart mm:ssI am trying to chart minutes and seconds in a graph. I
have the cells formatted as mm:ss. When I look at the
data table it is showing my entries as 00:00. For example
in cell C3 I have ":03" and in the data table it is 00:00,
therefore not creating a bar on my bar graph. If I format
the cell as text it still displays 0 in the data table.
Please help.
Thanks, Kara
Hi Kara,
Actually if its minutes and seconds try 00:00:03

Print Chart in Shared WorkbookHi,
I have a Chart on one of my sheets and when my workbook is shared, I cannot
select it it and print it. Can someone tell me how to do ??
regards
Paul.
One of the features that's listed in help as unavailable with shared workbooks
is the ability to change charts.
Even though I couldn't select the chart itself, I could print the worksheet that
it was on.
If you really just want to print the chart (and none of the cells surrounding
the chart), maybe you could plop it (or a copy of it) onto a chart sheet--and
print that.

Control charting #2How did I build a true control chart that has the mean in the middle, the
control limits; mean +-2(stdev) and mean +-3(stdev), see
below. I have attempted to use both scatter and line charts and then
manipulate the axis, but that only works for the X and Y axis and does not
give me the mean line or control limits on the right. Ideas? I'm sure that
I'm making this more difficult than I need....

mean-2(stdv)13.3

Excel Charts and time valuesI am trying to create an excel chart to plot times. The Y axis needs to go
from 9pm (bottom) up to 11am. The X axis should be dates. I can get this
far but the chart will not plot anytime 12am - 11am. It will only plot 9pm -
11:59pm. Does anyone know how to make this work? Thank you!
Excel treats time as a fraction, the portion of a day. The date is the whole
number part of a value.
Even though 1 am is two hours after 11 pm, it has a value much smaller. To
make this work you should either use a date and time, or add 1 to the times
equal to or after midnight.

Getting Trend Line Info from ChartHi -
I am creating a manpower report and updating learning curve charts for a
decision making tool through VBA. The issue I am having is the trend line
(Power) in the charts gives me the output I need but I cannot figure out how
to pull the values I want into the spreadsheet. I have tried a couple of
functions but have come up empty handed. The RSQ function is not multilinear.
Does anyone know the formula for a power trend line? For example out of 100
samples I get the following info:
y = 1.5326x0.0657
R2 = 0.5744
Thank you in advance for any asssistance.

Problem with Chart drawing blank cells as zeroHi
I am currently trying to create an excel line chart showing cumulative
baseline vs Cumulative Actual vs forecast actual lines (the forecast line is
a continuation of the Actual to date line) which I have done - but am trying
to automate it so it is 'more user friendly' and can be created at the touch
of a macro.
The problem I am having is that one of the formulae i am using looks up a
date in the timescale and if it is in the future I want it to leave the cell

blank cell it is a zero ...

Marginal Abatement Cost
I want to create a marginal abatement cost (MAC) column chart in Excel 2003.
The data I am using is sorted for cost ($/tonne/year). Then I have a
marginal abatement (tonnes of CO2-e) and cumulative marginal abatement (also
tonnes of CO2-e).
On the x axis I will have cost.
The y axis shall be marginal abatement, the width of the columns shall
represent the marginal abatement, and their location on the axis will be
determined by the cumulative marginal abatement. Since the data is sorted for
cost, the chart shall show increasing cost with an increasing cumulative
marginal abatement.

help with dynamic rangeI wanting to know if this is possible without switching the way I have data

row names for several departments. So basically there is a chart that is 12
columns wide (one for each month), and about 30 rows longs (one for each
department).
Data is entered into this as each month is completed for overtime hours, so
as of now, anything past Column August is blank (not including the Total
column). I really want to make a chart that would ...
Controlling excel chart axisHi,
I have automated plotting of charts of date v/s speed recorded on a
particular day with date on the x-axis and speed on the y-axis for each car
that is being tested say Focus, Escort and Ikon. The graph gets displayed
properly for the first data selected
(say Focus) from a combo box. Now, for the other selection, the graph axis
are getting reversed i.e date is getting plotted on the y-axis and speed on
the x-axis !
Is there some why to control this ?
I’m using Excel with VBA.

So there should be one tab for raw data and 10 tabs for each employee. I’m using Excel 2000

How do I chart two separate sets of x and corresponding y values .I would like to chart two sets of x and y values with each set of x values
corresponding to its own set of dependant y values. The two sets of x values
for the ordinate are entirely different. It seems like I can only chart two
sets of data on the same graph with the same values for x and two separate
sets of dependant values for y. Is there any way possible to get around this
problem?

Export Campaign Acitivites to a timeline/Gnatt chartOne of our prospects came up with a good question... They want to be able to

be able to produce a timeline/gnatt chart for their board meetings.
I assume we have to export then maybe upload into MS Project?
Any suggestions of how this can be done?
Thank you.
One way to achieve this would be to have code read the crm data then export
to an mpx file which can be read in project. You are the first person who
has requested this type of functionality on this group.

If you know how to do it in Excel, have you tried recording a macro to see
what the VBA would look like to do the same thing? That would be my first
