Hi All,
The big green guy here, just wanted to let you all know that we now have the reputation system in place, the reputation system allows you to give a visible pat on the back to those that have helped you or whose information has been helpful.

You will see an icon in every post (Light Blue scales), click this to give the reputation point to whom you think deserves it, a green square appears for a reputation with more and more adding over time.Pretty soon you will see a string of green squares appear in the top right of your posts as your reputation grows and your forum presence!

Good Luck!
The Hulkster!

auto chart macro now plots points not lines
Hi there.
I have a macro that automatically imports data and draws charts on a seperate sheet in a workbook.
It all worked fine in Excel 2002 but now when the same macro is run in 2007 it draws the lines on the plots with points instead of just lines as it did before.

I've looked through the code to find out why but cant find anything. It stills uses
Code:
ActiveChart.ChartType = xlLine
and doesn't seem to change line type anywhere else in the code.

Is there a quick fix that I can sling in at the end of the code to ensure that the plotted lines do not have points attached to them?

Any help is much appreciated.

Cheers

Rather than rely on default settings, which appear to have changed, format the series as required.

If you still have XP installed use the macro recorder.
