I have a chart based on data from a worksheet, i want to be able to add the same format of data from other worksheets within the same file to the chart in order that the chart continues (ie a continous line chart based on month on month data housed within seperate worksheets

Thanks

John

From playing around with excel, you will notice that the chart button greys out if you try to chart data from several sheets.

You might want to try and create a summary sheet that pulls all the infor from the various sheets onto one so that you can chart that.

Excel tip:

Adding date and time

Here are two quick ways to add the date and time to your spreadsheet:

1) Type =NOW(), which displays both date and time in the same cell
or
2) Hold Ctrl and type the colon (:) into one cell for the date and the semi-colon(;)into another for the time.

Note that =NOW() updates to the current date/time whenever the spreadsheet recalculates.
