Dynamic (?) chart
I have a variety of data lists (production levels, sales, labour costs) that are calculated and combined into a summary table for my production mgmt to review. The lookups etc. are based on a date range entered on this table; they enter the start and end dates into different cells which returns totals for the categories to the table. I would like to graph results per day defined by the date range that they are looking at. The source for the graph is another table that collects all the info from the data tables and totals them per day. I need the graph to select data from that list starting at the date used to collect data for the table until the end date selected. I have considered LOOKUP and INDIRECT and MATCH type functions but can't fathom how to have a chart be dynamic with differeing start and end points. Is this even possible? -- Hooligan

Pyramid Charts
Does anyone know if there is a way to create a pyramid chart with altered shape to reflect unbalanced info.

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?

Print Chart in Shared Workbook
Hi, 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.

Excel Charts and time values
I 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. - Jon ------- Jon Pe...
