Default Chart content to change according to a selection on a combobox

Hello,

I would like to have an interactive graph but cannot work out how to do this
despite studying old posts.

I have two sets of data, range A and range B. When the user goes to
'results' sheet, they will automatically see range A displayed on the graph.
If they select range B from a dropdown menu, I would like the graph to change
to reflect the change in data range. Is this possible with not much previous
knowledge of macros?

Many thanks for your help in advance.

You can do this w/o any macros, just using a combo box (or check box) from
the forms toolbar.

Jon Peltier has quite a few articles about dynamic charting.

I think this one would be most relevant to you:
