Default How to control chart properties from worksheet



Hello experts!

Is it possible to control the chart properties from the worksheet?

I know it is possible to control legend texts (series names).

I am especially interested in controlling the ranges of series. How to
control the title and other texts on the chart would be also useful.

Best regards,

Marko

Marko -

You can control the length of the series by creating dynamic ranges and
using these as the data range for each series. See the examples and links
here:

You can link a chart text element to a worksheet cell easily. Select the
element (chart title, axis title, individual data label, text box), type =,
then click on the cell and press Enter.
