    Chart Source Data Changes

    Hello,
    I am working with Excel 2002 and I have data that needs to be applied to my chart. The problem I have is that I have to manually go to each chart, right click > Source Data and add "M" in the the pace of "J" to plot all the data that I need to display on the chart.

    Question is, how do I apply this change throughout the rest of the charts? I am looking to avoid having to manually change each individual chart one at a time.

    I have included a sample below


    Also, what does it mean when I receive a message "No more new fonts may be applied in this workbook" when I am editing the axis pertaining to my question above?


    Thanks

    I just wrote a macro yesterday to produce multiple charts because I was tired of doing them by hand. If you are well-versed in VBA, I can send you a copy. It may not work correctly, but it did save me several hours.

    No simple way to update chart references enmass other than with code.

    For the fonts see this article
