    Adding Cell Data to a chart as cell data

    Hi Everyone hope you all all safe at this difficult time worldwide.... i have a chart with data showing my diabetes blood test results and averages, but on a separate data sheet i also have cells that automatically works out how many tests are in a certain range (i.e. lower than 4, between 4 and 12 and then above 12) these change every time i add data to the data sheet. what i want to do is transpose these cells onto the chart sheet so they change when ever i enter data, is this possible. Thanks in advance and keep safe.

    Do you mean 'move' or 'copy'? Either should be relatively easy.

    There are instructions at the top of the page explaining how to attach your sample workbook.

    Re: Adding Cell Data to a chart as cell data

    quick way is to add a chart title. The with the chart title selected goto the formula bar and select required range. =Data!$J$6:$V$6

    If you want more control on the output you can add textboxes and link each one using same method.

    Or you could select the range, use Copy as Picture. Paste the picture on the chart and then use the same range address in the formula bar to link the picture to the range.
    Changes in the cell contents will then be shown in the linked picture
    Cheers

    Hi, another alternative is to use Excel Camera tool, it's like taking an instant photo of the selected range and show it in the place where you would like it to be shown.

    Please see attached the example for chart 401-500.
