    plotting a graph with variable start date

    Hi.

    I have a large table of data with dates in column A and 8 other columns. The dates start at 1/June of this year and extend, day by day, about 2 years into the future.

    I need to plot some of the data with the date on the x-axis. I know how to do this, no problem.

    But.. some graphs I want the x-axis to start with today's date, which changes day by day of course, rather than at 1/June. How do I go about this please?

    Thanks as always. KK

    My first thought is to create the chart like you normally would, then use filters to display only the data you want to see http://www.wikihow.com/Use-AutoFilter-in-MS-Excel
