Indirect chart source data
Hello, When building a line chart, and defining series values, is there a way to point to a cell that contains the cell address of the beginning point of the series and another cell that contains the cell address of the ending point in the series? The same with the x-axis too. Thanks Jeff -- jeaton ------------------------------------------------------------------------ jeaton's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=31409 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=511107 |

Indirect chart source data
Hi,
I don't think you can do exactly what you want but have a look at these articles on charting from named ranges. Perhaps you can build a named from from you information. Have not had a chance to tested this but maybe use INDIRECT() in the named range. http://peltiertech.com/Excel/Charts/Dynamics.html http://www.tushar-mehta.com/excel/ne...rts/index.html http://www.stfx.ca/people/bliengme/E...ps/Dynamic.htm Cheers Andy jeaton wrote: Hello, When building a line chart, and defining series values, is there a way to point to a cell that contains the cell address of the beginning point of the series and another cell that contains the cell address of the ending point in the series?

Indirect chart source data
When I saw this post, I said, oh sure, it's easy. I set up the names range
using INDIRECT, and all of Excel recognized the name, except of course, for the chart. I tried a number of ways, and finally put it off, because I had work to do. (I think I knew that charts don't recognize names constructed with INDIRECT, because I don't use INDIRECT in any of my defined names.) Thanks Andy for bailing us out. - Jon ------- Jon Peltier, Microsoft Excel MVP Peltier Technical Services Tutorials and Custom Solutions http://PeltierTech.com/ _______ "Andy Pope" wrote in message ...
