The problem I have is using the parent company's form the shows expenses as negative amounts. The Sparkline show oposite from what it should (up for high expense, down for low expense). I know I can add a hidden row and change the sign. Is there any way to condition the sparkline cell to change the sign? Thank you Sparklines look like a quick and easy way to add some visualization.

That creates an empty column in which you can put your sparklines. nutsch I manage to replicate something similar by:

I did it originally many months ago during the technical review. That was two versions ago, I deleted the virtual machine that was on, and I didn't save the files. If anyone kows how I did that, please remind me. Christian -

It looks like you have managed to get a blank column in the table and insert the sparklines in there.

I liked using the conditional formatting in 2007, but never could work out how to get them out of Excel, ie to get data bars in a Word table. Do you know of any way to do so? Cheers, James Hi Jon,
