Excel 2010
Working with Sparklines
To create sparklines:
Generally, you will have one sparkline for each row, but you can create as many as you want in any location you want. Just like with formulas, it's usually easiest to create a single sparkline and then use the fill handle to automatically create sparklines for the remaining rows.
- Select the cells you will need for the first sparkline. In this example, we are creating a sparkline for Kathy Albertson, so we will select her sales data.
Selecting cells
- Click the Insert tab.
- In the Sparklines group, select Line. A dialog box will appear.
The Line command
- Make sure the insertion point is next to Location Range.
- Click the cell where you want the sparkline to be. In this example, we'll select the cell to the right of the selected cells.
Choosing a location for the sparkline
- Click OK. The sparkline will appear in the document.
- Click and drag the fill handle downward.
Dragging the fill handle
- Sparklines will be created for the remaining rows.
