Graphs

How can you copy a graph in one spreadsheet, but copy the link of that graph to another spreadsheet? So when you change details of the oroginal data the graph on the other spreadsheet updates.

There was a option on the 2003 version to paste special links however in the 2007 version this option is greyed out and therefore not available.

For upcoming training course dates see: Pricing & availability

RE: Graphs

Hello Alan


Thank you for your question regarding graphs.

It is possible to copy linked charts. Once your chart is created in one spreadsheet, if you right-click over the chart (make sure its over the white background and not over part of the chart columns etc...).
Select Copy, go to the other workbook, and choose paste. If you want the chart as a chart sheet, then with chart selected in new book, look at button in top right, called Move Chart. Charts are dynamically linked so changes made in original spreadsheet will update other charts too.

I hope this resolves your question. If it has, please mark this question as resolved.

If you require further assistance, please reply to this post. Or perhaps you have another Microsoft Office question?

Have a great day.
Regards,

Mark

Excel tip:

Freeze Rows and Columns to keep lables displayed

You can freeze rows and columns in your worksheet so they don't move.

This allows you to keep row and column labels displayed on your screen as you move through a large worksheet.

Click below and/or to the right of the cell(s) you want to freeze. (NB. Excel freezes ALL the rows above and ALL the columns to left of the selected cell)

Click on the 'Windows' menu and selct 'Freeze Panes'.

Lines appear in your worksheet. The required rows and columns are frozen and remain on your screen as you move through your worksheet.

To unfreeze rows and columns, click on 'Window' menu and select 'Unfreeze Panes'.
