You can now scroll down using the scroll bar control and the data will change as you click:ДЇinally, highlight the small data range and insert a chart: Now copy those cells down to fill up the rest of the 14 rows. Notice how it is pulling the data from the original 500 row chart. Now, enter this formula into cell E2: =OFFSET(B1,$I$1,0): You may need to format these cells as dates. Note that we made the counter cell location an absolute value by including a $ in front of both the row and column reference. The 0 tells the function to move zero columns over. Every click on the arrow of the scroll bar control will increase that number by 14, thus displaying the next group down in the list. $I$1 is the counter to indicate the number of rows the OFFSET function is to go down. A1 is the top of the list of our 500 items. So, our OFFSET formula that we will enter in cell D2 is =OFFSET(A1,$I$1,0).

Height and Width are in brackets since they are optional and we won't be using them here. Cols is how many columns over it is to go. Rows is how many rows down the function is to go. =OFFSET(reference,rows,cols,).ДЄll OFFSET does is return the value of a cell location based on the directions you give it. Now we need to enter our formulas in the list area. That cell will have a dual purpose with our OFFSET function. Page change is how many rows will change each time we click within the scroll bar, in our case 1.Д¬ell link will show what row is at the top of our list, which is the cell we set up as our starting point. Increment change is how many rows will move with each click of the scroll bar arrows.

We have 500 rows in our data table and we want to display 14 at a time, so we take the maximum number and subtract the number displayed plus 1. Minimum value is 1, the first row in your table. Enter the values as I have here:Д¬urrent value is the starting point for your scrolling control. Right click on the scroll bar and select Format Control:ДЄ pop-up will appear. Next we need to enter the correct information into the Format Control for the scroll bar. We're only a couple steps away, so hang in there! If you hold down the Alt key while you do this, it will auto-fit nicely within the column: Now, in the column 'F' next to the small table we created, click and drag your cursor to insert the scrolling control bar. Click on the Developer tab, then from the Insert option of the Controls group, select the scroll bar control: Now we need to add the scroll bar control. I've entered a '1' in cell I1 to indicate the number of rows down from our reference point that the scrolling data will display.

I also need to set up a cell that will provide the counter for our OFFSET function we will use (more on OFFSET later). Then I set up a data range area to display those 14 values: I've chosen 14 so I can see two weeks of data at a time. The first step is to decide how many rows of data you want to see at a time. Here is a list of 500 dates and sales for each day: In order to use the scroll bar control, you must first add the Developer tab to Excel.

When you get a preview, look for Download in the upper right hand corner. You can download the file here and follow along. Maybe you also want a chart that dynamically adjusts as you scroll through the data. Let's say you have a large amount of data and want to be able to 'scroll' through it without having to page down dozens of times.
