Excel for Mac insert Chart menu
I have an older excel file originally created in Windows. I am now using axel for Mac on a MacBook. The Insert Chart menu is greyed out. Problem appears to be with the file parameters as the insert chart menu is active with a new file. What should I do to make the insert chart menu active?
- No, the chart tools don't work on a new worksheet. I can copy a worksheet into a new file and the chart tools will work.

- The old workbook may have been saved in a binary file format that does not support Excel's current chart tools. To update the workbook, in Excel use File > Save As and change the format to Microsoft Excel Binary workbook (.xlsb). Then you should be able to use the chart tools.
