This is much more complicated, but if you’re clever with formulas you could probably make it work.

You might check out Debra Dalgleish’s dependent lists approach for data validation (http://www.contextures.com/xldataval02.html) in order to get the subdepartments after a department has been selected.

I am trying the same chart however i have a Dept and sub depts.

When i used the get chart with indirect option it allows me only 4 indirect functions that could we written, I am an unable to use the above method, because when i select my Dept, i need to get the various sub depts graphs as well in seperate graphs, Any idea who could i do that

Regards,
Renato,

1. I am graphing 4 different factors, each with a mean and a mean bar. So there are two series per factor. I can get them to show up on the graph together, but they avoid being titled properly.
2. My title reads out some values, then the factor i want, then more values, instead of JUST the factor I would like. Not sure how to bipass this.
3. All other non-selected graphs show up on the bottom at zero. i read the other comment pertaining to this, but there are no empty slots, like you said there might be.
4. Finally, How can I go about hiding the original chunk of data and just show the selected range in the second chunk of data?

Thanks, its alright if you can’t answer all my questions.

thanks!

I think if there is a variable number of items, then you will need a programmatic solution.
