From: "David Biddulph" groups [at] on 16 Apr 2010 13:37 It tells you how under Charting in Excel help. Copy the data from the data sheet, then when you click on the chart you'll find Paste Special under Paste in the Clipboard group on the Home tab. I'm still trying to find my own way around Excel 2007, & particularly the charting functions. -- David Biddulph "Dave B" <DaveB(a)discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:C22228D8-5FC2-474B-B499-3B5C9D8F5C0C(a)microsoft.com... > The formulas work, but the cut and paste doesn't.

From: Dave B on 16 Apr 2010 15:45 Herbert, Still no go. I underrstand the process you have provided and it is an elegant approach. My problem seems to boil down to the "Edit Series" box from the "Select Data" window. In your example, your "Edit Series" box contains "Series Name", "Series X Value" and "Series Y Value". The box I bring up contains only " Series Name" and "Series Value". where am I going wrong? -- Dave B "Herbert Seidenberg" wrote: > Excel 2007 Chart > Dynamic min, max points. > No extra cells used. > http://c0718892.cdn.cloudfiles.rackspacecloud.com/04_16_10.xlsx > Pdf preview: > http://www.mediafire.com/file/mr2gzzynhig/04_16_10.pdf > > . >
From: Mike Middleton on 16 Apr 2010 19:33 Dave B - In Excel 2007, if you have an XY (Scatter) chart type, the Edit Series dialog box will contain "Series name", "Series X values" and "Series Y values". If you have some other chart type, e.g., a Line chart type, the Edit Series dialog box will contain "Series name" and "Series values." Your original post said you had an XY chart. Maybe you don't. - Mike http://www.MikeMiddleton.com "Dave B" <DaveB(a)discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:8BA0855F-F3B8-4066-85D8-7CD889AEB985(a)microsoft.com... > Herbert, > Still no go. > I underrstand the process you have provided and it is an elegant approach. > My problem seems to boil down to the "Edit Series" box from the "Select > Data" > window.
