Customizing Graphs Beyond Quick Reports in @RISK

Overview:
Quick Reports are designed for fast, consistent readability and are not highly customizable. However, there are several ways to get the same information in customized graphs.

Options:

A. Custom Reports (@RISK 7+)

• Mix and match graphs and statistics tables.

• Choose outputs to report via the Custom Reports tab.

• See Custom Reports and Custom Report Outputs in @RISK Help.

B. Copy/Paste

• Quick for one-time needs.

• Open Browse Results, select a graph, adjust options, copy, and paste into Excel.

• Some customizations can be saved in Application Settings.

C. Report Templates

• Create templates on dedicated sheets named RiskTemplate_reportname.

• Include Excel/@RISK formulas, statistics, and graphs using RiskResultsGraph.

• Fast and automated, but only limited customizations for RiskResultsGraph.

D. VBA Automation (@RISK 6.2+)

• Use the RiskGraph object for full customization via Visual Basic.

• See the XDK Automation Guide and XDK Reference for all properties/methods.

• Examples available for placing graphs through VBA.

• Available in Professional and Industrial editions only.

Tip: Choose the approach that balances speed and customization needs. For programmatic control, VBA offers the most flexibility.
