    Hi Chandoo!
    I've been reading through a lot of the site for hours and I got a question man, I've encountered recently some excel documents a co-worker downloaded which is sort of a quiz, basically a game quiz, it has an image of a movie and you had to guess the name in a box then, a box below gave you a correct with green bgcolor or wrong in red bgcolor. My question is what kind of formula or way, can I get to use this so I can do some quiz test for some students? it's a very ingenius way to pop the brain a bit with excel. I appreciate the time you put into this site, keep up the work.

  29. istreva says:

    hi chandoo,

    is my second time typing it seems my explorer sucks, I'll make it short this time, I received an email with an excel document that does a quiz where they showed you an image of a movie and you had to answer which movie is it from, almost case sensitive capitals don't matter, so i would like to know what is the formula or whatever it is so i can apply it on educative ways for classes. thanks for the time you put into this site.

  30. Chandoo says:

    @istreva ... thankfully your first comment made to my server before crashing your browser. Welcome to PHD and thanks for the comments 🙂

    You can create a quiz in excel by using protected cells and conditional formatting. I will write a tutorial on this may be in the next 2 weeks. Basically the way to do this is to have the answers in a range that is protected so that no one can view it, and then use conditional formatting on cell(s) to change color to red / green based the answer entered by quiz taker.

  31. istreva says:

    I think that would be awsome, I've been trying to figure that out but I'm not an excel guru, I studied some computer programing and done some javascript, so i thought there would be some "if" "then" involved, I think If you can point me in one direction with one sample I can manage to replicate the process and maybe even add on some more to it! Thanks man, 6 hours a day in the office can be very insighfull reading your site 🙂

  49. Shannon Lin says:

    I want to create a chart where the bars in the chart mirror the color in the cells used to create it. For example, if something is Red at 12% and Green at 85%, I want the columns in the chart to be Red at 12% and Green at 85%. Whenever I try to create the chart it colors each bar the same. Is what I want to do possible?

  50. jeff weir says:

    SHannon - one way you could do this is to add a different series to the chart for each colour that you will be using, then format those series the specific colours you want. The series would need to reference different columns, which would only contain the data specific to each colour.

    For instance, if your original data was in a column starting from A2, then in the cell B2 (which will be where the green series of the graph points to) you would have a formula like =if(A2 > .80, A1, na()) which means that only data that meets your cut-off point for being green (80% in this example) gets copied there. Anything else gets entered as the error #N/A, which Excel doesn't plot.

    THis should do the trick.

  53. Chandoo says:

    @Martin... Try using Excel 2007, it makes the edges of charts look more smoother. More on the charting differences between 2007 and 2003 here: http://peltiertech.com/WordPress/why-i-dont-like-excel-2007-charts/

    When I try to download it does nt come as a normal zip folder and it asks which program to use? I tried excel and doesn't work! any ideas 🙁

  57. Chandoo says:

    @Catherine... sometimes live.com adds an underscore "_" at the beginning and end of the file name. just select the file, press "F2" and remove the "_" from end. This should make the file work with winzip (or expand all option).

  61. David says:

    Hi Chandoo,

    I found these templates, and like the idea of using them. However, I must be missing something because when I follow the directions, the result I get is not what I expected. When I choose the range $N$9:$S$13 and select the user defined chart, I get a really strange result.

    I found that I had to select only the data values ($O$10:$S$13), then when the used designed chart appears, manually re-enter the X Axis series ($N$10:$N$13), and the each references for each of the years ($O$9 etc.).

    Any idea what I am doing wrong?

      @Simon
      Setup your data like:
      2011 2012
      Item A 17 20
      Item B 15 13
      Item C 12 16

      2011 is above column with no. 17
      2012 is above column with no. 20

      Select the whole area including Items, Years and data
      Goto Insert, Chart, select the 3D chart type you want to use

    I think I need to clarify the data set a bit. 

           2011-01 2011-02 2011-03 2012-01  2012-02  2012-03Item A 17 20 23 34 32 32Item B 15 13 34 32 33 65Item C 12 16  34  32 44  99 

    I want the Items to stack in 1 bar per month, and show it in one list of bar for each year

    Hi Chandoo,

    I like the look of the pseudo incell chart, how did you achieve such an effect? I've downloaded the templates, but there is no fill for any data series.

    Thanks!

    Seeing the stuff in your website I feel astonished that how a man can be so brainy doing so many things single handed. Kudos to you.

    Hi Chandoo excellent charts for free, but i ma trying to find out how you created your pie of pie of pie chart re water use. how can i create the same thing using my data

  94. Minnaar says:

    I am very interested to see if someone has used these dashboards as shared workbooks to give multiple users (5-10) access to update the dashboards concurrently. Lots of our clients use spreadsheets very inefficiently with no concurrent update of data made possible due to their reliance on old school "you-add-your-data-and-I-will-add-mine when-you-are-done" approach with no account for version control etc. I don't want to use VBA because once you step out of the team they keep phoning you to make the slightest changes to the code. I want to keep it as simple as possible and was hoping their would be people out there who have used these dashboards in a smart collaborative manner.

    Hi Chandoo,

    How to convert pie chart into bar diagram. It is like converting earth to flat map but do know the process.
    Help will be appreciable.

  99. Julie says:

    Will people that don't have these templates see them the same way when they open the spreadsheet on their computer?

    • Hui... says:

      @Julie
      All versions of Excel after 2003 render colors and lines slightly differently to versions before 2007
      But yes you will mostly see the same on your PC

    Hi!

    I am looking for a "Variance Matrix" Graph for differences in Quality scores. Basically, we score quality from 1 - 5 and then an auditor will score the same call 1 - 5. I want a graph that has 1 - 5 vertically and then 1 - 5 horizontal at the top, then put counts in the middle for how many calls match up in each box EG, If I scored it a 1 and then they scores it a 3 it would show up at 1 vertically(my score) and 3 along vertically (Auditors score) is this possible on excel?

  101. Aditya says:

    Hi Sir,

    I want to create a Graph any type. I have data in below format:
    Company Name Emp Name Number
    ABC Aditya 555
    ABC Mukesh 777
    ABC JHA 999
    XYZ Aditya 666
    XYZ Mukesh 444
    XYZ JHA 888

    Please guide me to plot this graph on above data but I want Company Name, Emp Name, Max of No, Min of No and Avg of No.

    Waiting for your response...
