Calculating Range Dynamically

tlukareski · Apr 12th, 2002, 07:23 AM

Hello-

I have a simple task that I need help with...

I have a spreadsheet which imports data from a text file. The data can change, meaning that it can have 10 rows one day, perhaps 20 the other. I can calculate the number of rows using the following line of code...

RowCount = WorksheetFunction.CountA(.Columns(1))

Now I need to set the range for a chart based on the number of rows using SetSourceData.

The range will always start at cell A1, how do I tell Excel to add the number from RowCount to the range for SetSourceData?

Thanks-
Thomas

rowcount = Range("a1").End(xlDown).Row
ActiveSheet.ChartObjects("chart 2").Activate
ActiveChart.SetSourceData Source:=Sheets("Sheet6").Range("A1:B" & rowcount), PlotBy:= _
xlColumns

There are different way where you can make your range dynamic.

I have able to list some ways in my file no. 16 'Populating Combobox'

see if it can be helpful to you.
