Hi,
I am trying to plot a graph using Macro and could do that. But I have
to store that graph as a .jpg or .gif file. Is there any way i could do
that automatically(like macro)? Could anybody help me in doing this.
 
If you save the file as a web page, the graph will automatically be
saved as a .gif.

For instance, if you save the one-sheet workbook foo.xls as a web
page, the graph will be saved in the foo_files directory (which is
at the same level as foo.htm) as image001.gif.
 
Hi,
Thanks for your answer but I didnt get exactly what you said. First i
saved the file as .xls and then how to save as webpage? one more
question is it possible to make this automation(through Macro or some
other way)?
 
You needn't save it as an .xls file first. Manually: Use File/Save
As Web Page (or choose Web Page from the File/Save As dialog's
Format dropdown).

Programmatically: try recording a macro of saving as a web page, and
modifying from there. Post back with your code if you need help.
 
Hi,
To be frank I couldnt find any option to save as Web page in my Excel.
I am using Excel 97. Is it newly added with 2000?
 
Note that you will need SR1 at least to do it programmatically and I don't
believe recording will work.

But you may want to look at this first:

How to Create a GIF File from a Microsoft Excel Chart

for a JPG I did:
Sub Create_JPG()
Dim mychart As Chart
Set mychart = ActiveSheet.ChartObjects(1).Chart
mychart.Export Filename:="F:\Mychart.jpg", FilterName:="JPG"
End Sub

and it worked for me.

If you still want to go the Save As Html route in VBA:

for gif just change reference to .jpg to .gif
Sub ExportChartGIF()
ActiveChart.Export Filename:="C:\a\MyChart.gif",FilterName:="GIF"
End Sub

also see Harold Staff's write up in
XL2GIF routine
ttp://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/excel/xl2gif.htm
which places picture of a group of cells onto a graph so it can create
a .jpeg file.
