    Percentage Gauge Needle

    Is there a simple way of having a percentage display a number from a single cell.

    All I need is the grand total percentage, which has already bee calculated and formulated to show as a slick gauge.

    For example the number 91% displays in a single cell. How do I get a gauge to display this number.

    If you're thinking of a traditional style dial gauge there is no simple way although it it is do-able with a bit of Trig and VBA.

    You could use a progress bar style display using a built in scroll bar ....

    Hello

    If it's a speedometer type chart you're looking for their are plenty of examples on YouTube, for example:

    As Andy says, not sure if you would call it simple but by way of an example see the attached file working with percentages.

    Hope this helps.
