Dashboard

I've been asked by my company to create a dashboard looking at a variety of
metric but I don't know where to start. Anyone has a template they can
share? Data points will be varied and I would like to automate if possible
without any programming required. Specifically what set up would I need to
allow the dashboard to update itself when I update the data?

I know its a loaded question but all help appreciated.

Excel or Access? Presumably neither in Word nor PowerPoint. Either way,
you'd be MUCH BETTER OFF asking this in newsgroups specific to Excel or
Access, e.g.,

microsoft.public.excel or microsoft.public.access

Since you're using Microsoft's portal, from

http://www.microsoft.com/office/comm...tOverview.mspx

select the General Questions link from either the Excel or Access sections.
