Adding new data to existing graph
Hi,
I a graph with date, loan amount etc. I will need to add new data on a weekly basis and wondered if there is a way for me to link the existing graph so that everytime I add new data it will automatically be updated?
Thanks
RE: Adding new data to existing graph
Hi Amy
Thanks for getting in touch. The best way to do this is convert the source data into a table.
To do this, click inside your data (the dates and amounts etc). On the Home tab, click Format as Table. You then have to choose a style, but you can remove this afterwards if you like. Click OK to confirm that it has captured all the data.
Now go back and highlight the entire table. Create the chart as normal but note that when you add a new row to the table the chart will automatically update.
I hope this helps.
Kind regards
