Windows 7 Ultimate Key A Sparkline Trick - Using t

In this blog post I’ll walk through some of the ways you can use sparklines in Excel 2010 using sample sparklines from the book store demo file: In the above example we have the data for the employee sign-up contest,Microsoft Office 2007 Enterprise, this is a contest where employees try to get customers to sign-up for a bookstore club card. The contest has gone on for several weeks now,Windows 7 Ultimate Key, and each employee has a goal of 20 sign-ups per week. Right now the sparklines are conveying the history of sign-ups for each employee,Office 2007 Serial, for example: Sam started off slow but picked it up at the end and Bay was the opposite.For this release of sparklines there isn’t a way to set a reference line,Microsoft Office 2010 Product Key, but similar to chart there are ways to work around it. One of the ways to get a reference line is to leverage the horizontal axis. Since the axis crosses at zero,Office 2007 Key, the first step is to subtract the goal from the actual results: Once you do that employees that make the goal for the week will have a positive number and ones that miss the goal will have a negative number for that week. Then we can bind the sparklines to the new numbers and turn on the horizontal axis: Now that we have the reference line in there the sparklines are conveying more information than before: we can tell that Sam has been missing the goal the majority of the time and Bay has been above it throughout the competition. There are a few different formatting options you can do such as turning on the negative points to see when the goal is missed or changing the sparkline type to a win / loss type: This covers the sparkline post for today, my final sparkline post will be soon! <div
