A while back I was wanting to create a self updating chart for my employees to use where they just entered the data and the chart work was done for them. I spent several weeks learning VBA methods and ended up using VBA for the entire workbook, including sorting, printing and "goto" buttons, checkboxes, and the works. Then I figured out this easy method for simple charts. I'm glad I got the VBA experience but it was frustrating knowing how simple what I really wanted was! Hence the "Easy Steps" in the title. I wanted to share this with other Excel "charters" out there. VBA in Excel will probably be a subject of some of my future articles. Good point, Greg.

A few years ago I created a trending chart that used slider bars to zoom and scroll through the history of the chart.
