Hello everyone!

I have a question about making charts with macros, on which I am sort of noob. I have tried to find the answer by looking at similar problems and do have an idea about the code, it's just hard to apply everything to my own problem. I would like to follow a course to learn more about macro's, but I am kind of in a hurry.

In the HTML (bottom of post) there is a table from which I want to create graphs, I would like to make a chart for every company in the table (this is a shortened file, in the original file I have about 250 companies).

The data is dynamic: the number of companies will change, the company names will change, the series data will change and the dates will change. The STAFF type will usually be the same, but when I want to add a staff type now it means i will have to reselect the data for each chart. The company names will be generated in the tables with a pivot table. Please note that the first chart will always refer to the first company and so on, although the company itself will change.

What I would like to do is have a macro that will generate a chart for each company on the worksheet 'Charts'. The macro will have to select the data for the first chart ($D$1:$AA$8), make the chart, then 'offset' the range 8 cells down to $D$9:$AA$17 and repeat the LOOP until the companyname cell value is 0 (my tables generate a 0 after the last company).

Basically, I hope it is possible to specify the layout and other settings for the graphs as well (I have a template for the chart that could be applied). Also it would be helpful if it places the charts in the right position, I would like to have three charts of similar size on the same place on each page. (first 3 rows empty, then chart, 1 row empty, chart, 1 row empty, chart and then on the following pages exactly the same)

I have one file with all the charts already there, so a solution to change the data series/layout for existing charts could also work.

I hope someone can help me with this, as I have changed all the graphs manually before this and I can tell you that it is not a nice job to do. Thanks!

Excel Facts

When did Power Query debut in Excel?
Although it was an add-in in Excel 2010 & Excel 2013, Power Query became a part of Excel in 2016, in Data, Get & Transform Data.
Welcome to the Board


Code:
Sub MultipleCharts()
Dim r As Range, i%, ch, co As ChartObject
Const safety = 20
Sheets("Table").Activate
i = 0: Set r = [d1:aa8]
Do While i < safety And r.Cells(1, 1).Offset(, -1) <> 0
    Set ch = ActiveSheet.Shapes.AddChart2(216, xlBarClustered)
    ch.Chart.SetSourceData r
    ch.Chart.Location xlLocationAsObject, "Charts"
    Set r = r.Offset(8)
    i = i + 1
Loop
Sheets("Charts").Activate
Set r = [b4]: i = 1
For Each co In Sheets("Charts").ChartObjects
    co.Left = r.Left:            co.Top = r.Top
    co.Width = [b2:h2].Width:    co.Height = [a4:a15].Height
    co.Chart.ApplyChartTemplate _
    ("C:\Users\Eddie\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Templates\Charts\columns.crtx")
    Set r = r.Offset(IIf(i Mod 3 = 0, -26, 13), IIf(i Mod 3 = 0, 10, 0))
    i = i + 1
Next
End Sub
