Hello World!
To state my problem simply:
In Excel 2013, I have a line graph which charts real-time data (incoming from industrial humidity/temperature/dew point transmitters). It expands to accommodate incoming data from the receiver, but I want to be able to have the first entry displayed on the graph to be variable, essentially dragging along as new data is added. Thus, a constant window of, let's say, 50 data points which will include the most recent data point and the 49 previous ones ALWAYS - a real-time moving window.
I've tried using the COUNTA function for the initial row-value of the x-axis on the graph which basically counted all rows in column A (my date-time X-axis which I want to "drag along") and then subtracted 50 from it. However, I get an error no matter what...
Example1: =Sheet1!$A$COUNTA(Sheet1!$A:$A)-50, $A$100
Example2: =Sheet1!$A$(COUNTA(Sheet1!$A:$A)-50), $A$100
My hope was that the newest data would be displayed via $A$100 (and all data between newest and initial, obviously)
and my initial point would, in this case, be row 50. Then, when the next row of data comes in my newest data point would be row 101 and my initial point would be 51,
keeping a 50 point interval in view on the graph at all times.
This, however, has resulted in failure and disappointment...
Any ideas??
Thank you for your time!
