Hi all

I have created a chart template to format a series of charts in a dashboard i have developed, is there any way to embed the template into a workbook so that when I email the chart the charts will follow the template format when someone else opens up the document on their own computer?

If this is not possible maybe there is some other solution. The chart's themselves are bar charts but I have one series on a secondary axis, I found that if I didn't apply the template that when I updated the chart I lost the formatting I had applied (data labels and a pattern fill). If I can't embed the template maybe there is another way for me to default the series on the secondary axis to the specific formatting I want (i.e. display data labels and use pattern fill)?

Any help is very welcome!

Thanks
 

Excel Facts

Is there a shortcut key for strikethrough?
Ctrl+S is used for Save. Ctrl+5 is used for Strikethrough. Why Ctrl+5? When you use hashmarks to count |||| is 4, strike through to mean 5.
