Hi ASPOSE Support,
I have a chart as an embedded Excel in PPT.
I used a formula like =DATEVALUE(“1/1/2017”) as categories in the embedded workbook, so the categories can be real date type.
After the PPT is created, when I open the PPT, in categories axis it will show the whole formula like =DATEVALUE(“1/1/2017”) , but after I click “Edit Data” on the chart, it will change to 1/1/2017, which is what I want to get.
I suspect this is because the embedded workbook is not calculated until I click “Edit Data” to open it, so just wonder is there a solution for this?
Thank you

Hi,
I have observed the generated chart and have also worked with the sample code along with source presentation. The chart generated by code is different than that of what is shared by you. However, you can set the number format for chart data cell using using following sample code.
fact.GetCell(defaultWorksheetIndex, i + 1, 0, categoriesName[i] );
fact.GetCell(defaultWorksheetIndex, i + 1, 0).PresetNumberFormat = 14;
Please also visit this documentation link for your kind reference in this regard. I hope this will be helpful.
Many Thanks,
