create chart from series grouped by value in another column

[HarCo]

How to create a chart from series grouped by a value from another column?
Example
The sheet has these rows:
A, DATE, 1
A, DATE, 6
A, DATE, 7
B, DATE, 3
B, DATE, 15
B, DATE, 6
B, DATE, 6
A{1,6,7} is a series and B{3,15,6,6} is a different series. I have around
2000 different series like that in my excel. How can I auto-create charts for
each series (i.e. not selecting each series one by one)?

Creat another Sheet with the data series in the order you wish to graph them.

Depends on your chart type. If it's an XY chart, use a pivot table to arrange your
data nicely, with Date in the Row area, A/B/C in the Column area, and the values in
the Data area. Copy the pivot table, paste as values, remove extra labels so the
data looks like:

A B C
Date 1
Date 3 6
Date 6 15
Date 7 2
etc.

Select this range and create your chart.

Otherwise you could write a VBA routine to start at the top of the range, loop to
examine the first column, and when the value changes, create a chart for the rows
with the same value. Then continue with the next value.
