Link Excel Chart to Form

[Former Community Member]

Is there a way to display an Excel chart in a Live Cycle form that is linked to Excel (so that when the chart is updated in Excel, it will also be udpated in the form)?  I would like to create a presentation in Live Cycle that contains various Excel dashboards.  However, I would like to avoid the need to copy and paste the charts into the form every time they get updated.

Hi,

No, I don't think you will be able to achieve what you are looking for. You can create simple charts in LC Designer. Search John Brinkman's blog here: http://blogs.adobe.com/formfeed/ and Radzmar's here: http://thelivecycle.blogspot.com/.

Also have a look at Flash in XFA, which is a new feature in ADEP Designer 10. There are samples here: http://assure.ly/rqCuEn.

Hope that helps,

Niall
