Graphs in Microsoft Word
You say, "In Word 2007, the chart engine uses Excel to hold the data." How
does this work if you have a freestanding version of Word (that is, you don't have Excel 2007 installed)? Do you not get the charting ability? -- Suzanne S.

Graphs in Microsoft Word
Dear Bob Buckland and Suzanne,
Table consists of two columns. I need to put the graph with the values of the first column as X-coordinate and the values of the second column as Y-coordinate. As I understand, this corresponds to giving Data range in Chart Wizard (Step 2 of 4), when using Microsoft Excel tables. How can I make this? Best regards, Aleksander "Suzanne S.

So this would use the old Microsoft Graph applet? That would actually suit
me just as well since I'm comfortable with it (not that I've ever *liked* it, but over many years I've figured out how to use it). -- Suzanne S.

Hi Suzanne, As I understand, in a standalone Word 2007 install, using Insert=Chart on the Word 2007 Ribbon would be similar to what you'll see if you use an Office 2007 package and use Office Button=Save As=Word 97-2003 document and then using Insert=Chart. ============= "Suzanne S.

Hi Suzanne,
Yes, that's the one Word calls MSGraph.exe to create the graphs and embeds an Ole object. With the new Chart engine it embeds a picture/shape for the graph and an Excel .xlsx file. =========== "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote in message ... So this would use the old Microsoft Graph applet?

Hi Alexsander,
Generally, the default is for each column in the table would be a 'series' on the X-Axis, while the values in the rows would determine the upper/lower boundary range that is shown on the Y-[vertical] axis of the chart. In some chart types you can select to put a series on a second data axis. Are you using 3D charts or 2D? Do you have a small sample of the data table you're using and what graph type you're selecting in Word? You can use the Chart Wizard in Excel if you prefer and paste/link that chart into Word. =============== "Aleksander" wrote in message ...

Dear Bob Buckland ?:-),
I am using Chart with Chart Type-Standart Types-XY (Scatter)-Scatter with data points connected by lines. The sample of the data is small. Is it possible to insert data from Microsoft Excel table in to the Microsoft Word document (for example, as Insert-Reference-Cross-reference).
