Hello everyone,

I'm trying to insert a variable within another variable in the Cell Binding section of Easy Charts. I have attached an image to show where I am attempting to do this.

Is there a way to achieve this? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!

No, you have to use a custom property with an expression to produce the concatenated string, then use that custom property in your cell binding.
