Creating charts/graphs from data

How do you do this?

RE: Creating charts/graphs from data

Hi Jamila,

Thank you for the forum question.

The fastest way to create a chart in Excel is to select the data you want to have in the chart and then press down the key ALT F1.

You can also select the data range you want to see in the chart and then go to the insert tab in the chart group in select the chart type you want to use.

When you have created the chart you have hundreds of options to amend it.

Best Stl have a course which may be interesting for you. Excel Charting Training Course where we spend a whole working with charts.

Kind regards

Excel tip:

Create your own custom list on Excel 2010!

If you know how to use the auto-fill option on Excel then why not create your own customs lists?

The auto fill feature saves you time by allowing you to enter one of the list entries into a cell and then use your mouse to automatically drag the rest of the list into the cells below, above or to either side of the initial cell. When using your mouse to perform this task you will see a thin black cross appear at the bottom right hand side of the cell. Click, hold and drag to make the list appear.

Default lists include weekdays and months. To create your own list in Excel 2010 do the following;

>File
>Options
>Advanced
>Scroll right to the bottom of the page and you will see a buttom "edit custom lists", click this button
>enter your list in the list entries
>click add

Now try it out. Good luck.
