In this lecture you will learn how to create a dynamic chart ranges - assume your raw data table is quite big and you'd like the user to specify from which category or date - and to which category & date, they'd like to view the chart data from.
Excel Offset function is one formula that you can use to create dynamic ranges, but Excel's Index formula is a great alternative to the OFFSET function AND it's not a volatile function. Once we've figured out the right INDEX formula, we will copy and paste this into name manager and use the name for our chart range. This will provide us with a dynamic chart that only shows the user the range they'd like to view.

Leila, I just discovered your channel, and these videos are rapidly changing the way I work! They are incredibly useful, and your demonstrations are easy to follow. Thank you!
Leila, you are really so amazing! Thanks so much for putting this video together. All of your videos are so practical and you are my life saver :)
This is amazing, just added this technique to a massive vibration data spreadsheet which previously took one months worth of data (about 8 columns and 5000+ rows) where the graphs had set ranges for the month, and allowed it to pick and chose between the start date and end of the data set and update all of the graphs accordingly, so I can show 1 week, 2 weeks, 4 days...without manipulating the graphs every single time to reference new rows where that data ends. Love it.
Thanks for the INDEX:INDEX fun : )
You're welcome Mike.
Hi 🧡also we can use Offset: Offset😉
Thank you for this video. It explained perfectly what I was trying to wrap my head around.
Thank you SO much! This is exactly what I've been looking for, to a T -- how to chart [profits/losses/etc.] by dates using drop-down lists and a dynamic chart. This is great!
That's perfect! I'm glad you found what you were looking for. Thank you for your comment.

Thanks
This is just great. You make it so simple. Thank you very much!!
Amazing, just what I needed! thank you
Thank you Leila. This was so useful!!!
I was struggling with a similar chart using OFFSET() as the named range rather than INDEX(), but couldn't figure out the 'sheet name' requirement in the chart series name. You saved my day !! Thank you!!
SIMPLY PERFECTION !! As always, Thank You !!
Hi Leila! I spent 2 whole days trying to figure this out and your video helped me so much! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!
Thanks Leila. This video was very helpful and provided me with just what I needed.
Great video, did exactly what I needed. Thank you
Thank you for this, many things here I had not tried before. I copied your method, and then changed to the table like you did. I then used ‘Structured Table names’ to create the references in Name Manager, which I think makes things a little easier to read. (Making the dynamic array now ‘Spills’, so it looks a bit different to the video, but works exactly as you show it)
WAW - I Like it so much. that's the first time I learn several new out of the box tool in Excel. thank you.

you are great Leila !thank you so much you saved my day
Thanks for the instructions.
I made this a truly dynamic chart by avoiding the user selected start-end dates. My dates are in column C.
Special Note: Both of the Start-End Dates MUST be in the column data set or the function: Index(Match):Index(Match), will display "#N/A"
End date: H3=LOOKUP(9.99E+307,C:C) Returns the next largest value if the 9.99E+307 is NOT found.
Start-End Date delta: J2=30 (or any other integer value)
Start Date: H2=LOOKUP((H3-J2),C:C)
Very good video. I wish you the best. Quite carefully prepared.
