Drawing Graph in Excel

I have a template for excel to follow, and I am supposed to draw a graph onto the template using Labview Report Generation Toolkit VIs. However, it keeps returning error - 2146827284. What am I to check? This error is no longer there whenever i removed all the graph VIs. If I purely just ask Labview to send data to excel at specific locations of excel template, there is no error. Once I initate the plotting of graph, error exists. Do advise.

The following attachment shows the configuration.

Do a search of this forum for Java and Excel.
This question has been asked and answered many, many times.
There's an open source project called POI which should have samples of r

Generation of graphs in excel

Hi,
How do i achieve the following:
I need to draw graphs at runtime in excel using Java. Ealier without this functionality the application used JXL. It seems that jxl does not have the functionality of drawing graphs.
I wish to know a way through which graphs can be drawn on the fly on the basis of data available at hand.
Thanks in advance.

in short when the layout changes w/o going into excel can we control it ?(the new cells bounding to new query etc ??)

Xy graph in excel using activeX

Hi
I am trying to plot a XY graph in excel using Active X. I have two coloums of data one should be X the other should be Y. I am using XlXYscattersmooth graph type and giving the range as A1 to B5. But when the excel plots it, I am getting two series rather of X data points rather than XY. I know I am doing a simple mistake in choosing some variable but I am not able to figure out where I am going wrong.
Can anybody please look at my code and correct the code in order to get a XY plot rather than getting two different series.
Thanking you in advance

Changing the Size of generated graph in excel report generation toolkit

Hi, i am trying to build a report generation vi for my Structural health monitoring system in which i need to export 3 graphs in to an excel report. The idea is to have the report on a single page, but when i paste them along with the ceiling and pillar deviation percentages, the report just exceeds the page limit. I wanted to know whether one can change the size of the graphs in excel? One can do it in word(tried that), but i dont want to use the bookmark option as it intend to put this up as a webservice in the next step. I am using LabVIEW 2009 Thanks.

Report Generation SHM.vi ‏30 KB

Hi,
I haven't tried this myself, but looking through the report generation toolkit the "Excel format image VI" (in the Excel specific tab of the Report Genertaion window) looks to be the one you are after. The help entry for the VI says to: "Use this VI to format any type of image in a worksheet, including front panel images, images from a file, and graphs"
Hopefully this will help.

Error when adding a Title to a Graph in Excel

I am trying to automate adding a graph to Excel. The Easy Graph.vi is too simple for what I would like to do.
I recorded a macro of what I wanted to do, and then I copied it in LabVIEW basically.
My program is erroring out every time I try to modify anything on the chart (title, series values, series names, etc).
I cannot figure out why it will allow me to add a sheet, add the chart, rename the sheet, and then error out when I continue to use the Excel._Chart properties and methods.
I attached a sample file and my code.
Thanks
Kenny

Ok, I figured out my issue.
It seems that you have to graph the data, before you can change any graph attributes, even though I have done that before.
Once I put the axis, title, etc after the graphing, then it worked. Well, I also had specified my range wrong, so that errored out too.
Thank you for the help.
Also, how to you get a reference to the Chart Wizard through the excel activex?
I posted a snippet. You can take it from there. I do not remember how I got it before. I have not had to change it in six to seven years. I remember going through the MSDN and found the function. I think I made it from scratch to match the MSDN..

you most have eather a simple problem or your registry is flawed anyways did you try this found it on web.
Make sure that you are logged into the computer as local Administrator, or are part of the local Administrator group.
To identify which registry key is causing the problem use Regmon (a freeware tool published by SysInternals). Use Regmon to capture all registry access when regsvr32 is run. If an �OpenKey� request fails with �Access Denied� (which is listed by Regmon as �ACCDENIED�) then run regedt32 and check the permissions on that registry key. If necessary change the permissions on the key to grant local Administrators �Full Control�.

Why do I get jumbled text when pasting a graph from Excel (mac 2011) into Illustrator cs6

The Goal: To copy a graph from Excel (mac 2011) and paste it into Illustrator cs6 as a vector graphic.
The graph's vector and layout is okay. Yet, the text / copy is jumbled text:
$%"
$#!!!!"
Do I have to change a preference in either Excel or Illustrator?
Thank you!

In Excel, right click and choose Format Chart Area. In the dialog at the left, choose Fonts. Change the font to Arial or something other than Calibri (Theme Body). Then copy/paste.

How to add two series data in singal xy graphs in excel through labview

Hi,
I am trying to generate excel report and needs to plot XY graph in excel sheet. Using excel insert graph VI I am able to pass the data to excel and generate the XY graph (one x axis and many y axis), but I am not able to add a series in the graph that means not able to plot two XY plot in same graph (for example two plot X1Y1 and X2Y2 on same Graph). I know the other options like passing the image of graph control to excel sheet and by passing the data to specified cells and generating the xy plot.But my requirement is plotting xy plots in singal xy graph without displaying the data in tabular form in excel sheet. (Like when we call the insert graph VI, it will only inserts the OLE object and data is hidden in that) Please let me know if you need more clarification and let me know how to do this..

Draw graph with trackpad?

hello,
is any program how to write/draw graph in pages with trackpad? i know that i can make graph in pages but it's slowly...
thank for tips

Hello,
I’m not too sure what the exact problem you are encountering
is, and I see a sequence structure but I don’t see how it comes in to play
here. If your question is about how to
add multiple plots to an XY graph, I would take a look at the context help
window which gives good indication about how to add plots to the graph. Each plot consists of a “bundle” of arrays
where each element in the bundle is an array of data values. To add plots to the graph, wire each ‘bundled’
plot to the “build array” VI. Make sure
to expand the plot legend in the graph to account for the multiple plots that
will be displayed.
Before troubleshooting the XY graph, I would make sure that
you are getting the appropriate data from your Data Acquisition device. Are you certain that you have set up your DAQ
portion of code correctly, and that the data coming from the device is in the
proper format?
Thanks for posting to the forms, please let us know if you have
any additional information or questions on this. Have a great weekend!
