Can the range in chart be set dynamically based on information entering into the stated chart range but not looking at the full data set range.
To illustrate
Colum A Column B Column C Column D Column E
Row 1 Value 1 Value 2 +b1+(b1*0.5) +b1-(b1*0.5) +(c1-d1)/10
Row 2 Value 3 Value 2 +b2+(b2*0.5) +b2-(b2*0.5) +(c2-d2)/10
Row 3 Value 4 Value 5 +b3+(b3*0.5) +b3-(b3*0.5) +(c3-d3)/10
The entries in column A are measured lab data recored for line samples taken every 2 - 3 hours. The entries in colum B are manually entered limits based on the a target value know for the measurement. The spec limits can change but this is know to tose producing the chart and they will enter the necessary target column B.
I want a chart of the date accumlating over a 24hr period to always show the latest points on a sensible scale (Target +/- 50% of the target value.)
The chart logs data from a standard range split into 24 1 hour time intervals
(Not every time interval gets populated.)
I am not worried about not seeing data that recorded in eows 1 and two if the new target mean they will disappear.
Can anyone help I will try to put chart spreadhseet in illustraing what I am looking for later
Hi,
a good starting point for dynamic charts is Jon Peltier's site, especially

If you get stuck, upload a data sample, so we can have a look.

Avoid pie charts with more than two data points. Why? See here (pdf, 559 kb). The only acceptable pie chart is here.
and linking the axis to cells requires VBA code.
