Data Copy from Web Page

Are you sick of copying the same data again and again from web page and hate it like anything? 

Do you copy your equity share report from web page in every 1 hour and still don’t get all figures in one go?

Following information might help you… ...

Let’s see how we can make it simple -
-Open internet explorer and surf your equity page
-Copy the web address and open excel sheet
-Go to Data tab and Click on From Web button
-Paste the copied address in the Address Comb box and Click on Go
-Wait till the time box shows you the web Page inside the Web query box
-Then click on Import Button and your half work is done

Now you don’t need to visit the web page every time, you can open the same excel file and get your data readily available in excel.

Please Note :
While opening the excel file, Microsoft Excel will throw a Security Warning saying that data connection have been disabled, you need to click on Options and then Enable this content every time.
Now you can refresh your data in Data Tab.

Gauge chart

Gauge Chart in Excel :-
Gauge chart in Excel also known as Speedometer chart.

This chart is basically a combination of 2 charts, 1st Doughnut chart & 2nd Pie chart

First we will make Doughnut chart which is a base to place pie chart on it -
To make doughnut chart we requires some measures which will show the strength of area like RED area, Yellow area & the safest area which is green, we will use below mentioned table to make this chart

Performance

40%
Red
Average
20%
Yellow

40%
Green
Base
100%
White

We require half (100% out of 200%) of the chart to be hidden so will color this area white
To create Doughnut chart follow mentioned instructions –
·         Select Doughnut chart from Insert chart menu under other charts
·         Remove the legends & heading
·         Right click on any of the slice of the chart area and select Format Data series
·         Rotate chart by 270 degree under series options
·         Right click outside the circle and select No fill under Fill option

Now we will make another part of Gauge chart which is Pie chart –
Pie chart will capture your actual performance %age, by changing this %age your chart will change automatically

Performance
Measure
Performance
50%

Here we are assuming 50% is your current performance which can be change manually as per the actual performance of the company
Now the below mentioned table will make Pie chart


Data
Color
Performance - 1%
49%
White
1%  Gap to highlight
1%
Gray

150%
White

In this table 1% is nothing but to show the line on the point of performance %age like below
To create this chart –
·         Select Pie chart from insert menu under charts
·         Remove the legends
·         Add Data Labels
·         Right Click on any slice of Pie chart and select format Data series
·         Rotate chart by 270 Degree under series options

·         Select 1%, Press equal to sign & click on performance value Cell (50%) to show performance %age
After doing this our chart will look like

Fit Pie chart over Doughnut chart & do formatting like below
·         Make a round circle to fit middle of the doughnut chart
 
·         Make a shield to protect your charts to avoid unnecessary clicks

Place circle & shield at appropriate place & your Gauge chart is ready
