I am trying to build a chart from an order form in excel. I have built the order form and linked the chart to the form.
When I update my order form the chart should automatically change but currently the chart does not change when I add data to the order form.
I have searched everything on google and stackoverflow but I am not able to find any solution. I am new to Excel.

I want to automate chart visulation,, by doing On/Off on particular checkbox. So that Chart should show only checked parameter.
For example:
So If Checkbox 1 is true then only create chart shows the visualisation of Parameter1.
It is possible manually by creating checkbox in developer tools and then defining formula which connects to the chart.
but I want to automate it.
I don't really know how to express what I'm looking for, so I'll give a bit of context:
I have and add-in for Excel and PowerPoint that allows the user to insert shapes into the worksheet/slide with specific sizes, colors and values to form a stylized chart. I don't use the integrated charts because my company needs some weird styles and parameters that I can only replicate using shapes.
The problem is that once the shapes are in the worksheet/slide the user cannot go back to the add-in and change the chart values or series. For example, a user can't redefine the values and instead of $50 put $90 and update automatically the chart (as with the Office charts that we all know and love).
So what I thought as a solution is to have a 'background text file' or something like that with a dictionary of the charts and the shapes that are part of it; also the values and other characteristics like the x and y axis values. This way, when the user goes back to the add-in, he/she can retreive all the info from the original chart and change values, parameters or whatever is neeeded -- using the shapes' dictionary.
In essence, I want to program something like Think-cell but in Visual Basic.
Any suggestion is very welcomed!
I have a assignment with statistic. And I have issue on chart. I want to combine many chart to one sheet. let's say I have a three of chart then I want combine it to one page no need to separate 3 file excel. I want to combine to one file of excel. how can I do ?
You can place charts on a regular Excel worksheet and arrange several charts so they print on the same page. You can use the page layout view on the View ribbon to help with sizing and positioning the charts on the page.
This screenshot shows the page layout view with three charts.
I made the pie chart clickable in active report and linked to data deck and to filter on lists but the thing here if it's possible to multi select on chart and how to make it reset to show all items I can't make it anti select so it show all as when it loaded
anyone faced that before
I think I understand what you are trying to do here.
You appear to be trying to set the value of a filtered pie chart in an active report to be unfiltered, or similar to a case where you have "selected all"
The simplest way to do this is to create a button that will set the variable filtering the chart to empty. Since you are not filtered all values will be shown.

I am doing a dashboard. To resolve the problem with the space, I would like to show a chart which changes depending of which icon an user clicks (see image in following link: http://screencast.com/t/IvzllhxCi).
Charts are already done and ranges defined. The chart showed in the dashboard was inserted using the "Paste picture link" function (sorry if this is not the correct name, but I use Excel in spanish). I assume, that the best way to do it is creating different macros which define the data of a chart and are fired which every icon click, but... is there a more efficient way to do it?
How about just creating all the charts, putting them on top of each other and then showing / hidding the appropriate chart when a user clicks the icons via:
chart.Visible = xlSheetHidden;
And
chart.Visible = xlSheetVisible;
