Inserting Chart Sheet

Excel charts allow you to display data in a variety of different visual formats. You can create charts in Excel that are embedded in a worksheet or located on a separate chart sheet. In this tutorial, we’ll create an embedded chart, create a chart on a separate sheet (chart sheet), and move an embedded chart to a separate chart sheet.

To create an embedded chart, select data range, click Insert tab, and select a chart type from the Charts group, as shown in Figure:

To create a chart on a separate sheet, select cells range, right-click a sheet tab in the workbook and choose Insert, as shown in Figure:

In the Insert dialog box, select Chart and click OK.

A chart will be created on a separate sheet, Chart1 , as shows in Figure:

Click the sheet tab, such as Sheet1, and select the cells range. Excel will fill in the chart data range box in the dialog box as shown in the Figure. Click OK to return to the chart.

Move Embedded Chart

You can create a chart on a separate sheet by moving an existing embedded chart. To move a chart, select the chart and click Design tab > Move Chart as shown in the Figure:

The Move Chart dialog box appears, select New sheet, give it a name and click Ok to move the chart on the new sheet.
