Chart Sheet

 

You can find most charts on the same worksheet as the source data (embedded charts). However, you can also move a chart to a separate sheet that only contains a chart (chart sheet).

To move a chart to a chart sheet, execute the following steps.

1. Select the chart.

2. On the Chart Design tab, in the Location group, click Move Chart.
