I'm being asked if this is possible. I have a bar graph with dollar amounts.
The graph takes it's data on a different tab. In cell A1 is the batch number
(e.g. 1MLCLSPTCH040108), B1 is the dollar amount and C1 is Batch/Receipt
Status (e.g. Warning). Is there a VB code that will do the following:
1) If hovering over the bar, it will display the dollar amount but also show
the two adjacent cell data next to it?
or
2) Click on the bar and hyper-link to the cell that the data is coming from?

Thanks

These things are possible, but they require programming to respond to events
(mouse hovering and clicking) in the chart. I wrote an article on chart
events which is published here:

It doesn't say how to do exactly what you want to do, but it gets you
partway.

Tushar Mehta has a utility on his web site that allows you to define custom
hover labels for chart points. Look for Chart Hover Labels on his web site:
