Good morning all,
I've seen this problem posted before on MrExcel.com, but none of the threads have a working answer yet.
The problem is that the values in my graph lose their decimal precision when the spreadsheet holding the source values in not actively open.
I have two spreadsheets ("A" and "B") and spreadsheet A has a chart whose source data in found in spreadsheet B. (The graph is just a line graph, with the actual plotted values displayed at the bottom of the graph in a chart). The source values in spreadsheet B look as follows:
-6% -8% -1% 6% 18% 18% 23% 18%
(point being, no decimal precision displayed. The true values do have decimal precision).
When both spreadsheets are open, the chart in spreadsheet A displays the values exactly as they appear in spreadsheet B. The problem is that if I simply close spreadsheet B and then view the values in the chart, they have all reverted to showing the full decimal precision that is stored in the cell from spreadsheet B.
Does anyone know how to fix this? I am using MS Excel 2007.
Thanks so much!!!
Mark
