    Renaming Multiple Series Legend Entries

    Hi there,

    please see the screenshot. I've added 200 rows of data (Series 1-200), each row with multiple columns of data.
    I'd like to rename each of the 200 series to the specific customer names, rather than just 'Series 1' ...'Series 200'.
    There is a separate column (in a different work sheet) with all the customer names. How can I batch-rename
    all 200 Series, rather than editing each single Series Name by hand?

    Thx a lot,

    George

    Re: Renaming Multiple Series Legend Entries

    Are the customer names you are looking for, in that other worksheet, listed with the series? If so you could just use an Index(Match()) type of formula to bring in the names to the 'destination worksheet'

    if you need help doing that kind of thing, you will need to upload Excel examples (exactly the same process as attaching the images, but pick excel files instead!)

    Hi there,

    please see file attached.

    I'd like to have 'customer 1'....'customer 117' assigned instead of 'series 1' etc.

    How do I do that, other than all manually?

    Thanks a lot,

    Georg
