    How can I dynamically graph from multiple data tables according to user selectio

    a picture is worth a thousand word (best graph for a sitution)

    Monthly work schedule, disappearing assignments

    So, =MOD(DATE(2012,6,1)-DATE(YEAR($A$1),MONTH($A$1),C$2),21)=0 could be =AND(MOD(DATE(2012,6,1)-DATE(YEAR($A$1),MONTH($A$1),C$2),21)=0,LEFT(TEXT(C$2,"ddd"),1)<>"s") or you could use: =AND(COUNTIF(B$4:B$18,B4)=1,NOT(ISERROR(MATCH(B4,B$19:B$30,0))),LEFT(TEXT(C$2,"ddd"),1)<>"s")

    How can I define a name for the same range in several worksheets?

    OK 2007 has your answer, but you're stuck in 2003... workarounds? The ease of using named ranges is so that you don't have to use helper columns. OPTION 1 - set up a helper table in your final sheet. it can be hidden behind the charts OPTION 2 - use the INDIRECT(...) function. here you...
