| 720242 | 2008-11-14 18:24:00 | In my Excel 2007 I had charts in several tabs. Today no charts are visible in Excel on my laptop. Not charts previously made and not new charts I attempt to create today. No charts are visible in any of the Excel files on this computer. If I send the file to another PC the charts are visible. Believing the problem is in this laptop : 1) I Ran change and Repair from the "Add or Remove Programs" application. - no charts. 2) I uninstalled Excel and reinstalled Excel -- still no charts visible. Does anyone have any ideas as to how to fix this? |

| 720243 | 2008-11-14 19:23:00 | Welcome to PressF1. :) Have you installed MS Office 2007 service pack 1 and any other updates for Office? What version of Excel does the other computer use? Did you try to create a chart from a newly created spreadsheet (rather than an existing spreadsheet)? Office 2007 has a "Run Office Diagnostics" tool. You can find it under Excel Options > Resources. Run that and see what it comes up with. |

| 720244 | 2008-11-14 22:11:00 | Jen, Thanks for the reply. Yes, all available updates are installed (MS Office 2007 service pack 1 and any other updates for Office) All 3 of my PCs use Excel 2007. Yes, I attempted a chart from a new spreadsheet and nothing. The first thing I ran was the Office 2007 "Run Office Diagnostics" tool. Would it make a difference if I did a reboot after the uninstall and then did the reinstall? I think I will try that next. BTW I did two new things since I saw my last graph on this PC: I upgraded all 3 PCs from7.5 to 8.0 AVG Internet Security. And I started using Briefcase for some files to back them up on my desktop. Thanks for your ideas ... keep them coming. Rod |

| 720245 | 2008-11-15 16:52:00 | All Fixed! :) Don't know where the problem came from but charts are back after a 3 step process: 1) Uninstall Excel 2) Reboot Computer 3) Reinstall Excell from original disk - not from the Control Panel, Add or Remove programs. Bottom line - it did help to reboot before reinstalling. Rod |
