Thus, there will be large number of sparklines exist in our excel reports. Sometime, it is very difficult to modify them. However, these sparklines details can be collected using VBA code.

Sub List_Sparklines()

'Declare variable
Dim spa As SparklineGroups
Dim sprln As SparklineGroup
Dim sht As Worksheet
Dim i As Integer
Dim flag As Boolean

'Disable screen updating
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Application.DisplayAlerts = False

flag = False

'Check if Sparkline_Details sheet exist in active workbook
For Each sht In ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets
    If sht.Name = spl_sht Then
        flag = True
    End If
Next sht

'Add Sparkline_Details sheet if it not exists
If flag = False Then
    ActiveWorkbook.Sheets.Add After:=Sheets(Sheets.Count)
    ActiveSheet.Name = spl_sht
End If

ActiveWorkbook.Sheets(spl_sht).Activate
ActiveWorkbook.Sheets(spl_sht).Range("A1:Z500").ClearContents
ActiveWorkbook.Sheets(spl_sht).Range("A1").Value = "Sheet Name"
ActiveWorkbook.Sheets(spl_sht).Range("B1").Value = "Sparkline Location"
ActiveWorkbook.Sheets(spl_sht).Range("C1").Value = "Sparkline SourceData"
Cells.Select
Cells.EntireColumn.AutoFit
Range("A1").Select

i = 1

'Check each worksheet for Sparkline details
For Each sht In ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets

    Set spa = sht.UsedRange.SparklineGroups

    For Each sprln In spa
        'Pass sheet name value to A column in Sparkline Details tab
        ActiveWorkbook.Sheets(spl_sht).Range("A" & i + 1).Value = sht.Name
        
        'Pass Location range of Sparkline group to B column in Sparkline Details tab
        ActiveWorkbook.Sheets(spl_sht).Range("B" & i + 1).Value = sprln.Location.Address
        
        'Pass Source Data range of Sparkline group to C column in Sparkline Details tab
        ActiveWorkbook.Sheets(spl_sht).Range("C" & i + 1).Value = sprln.SourceData
        i = i + 1
    Next sprln

Next sht

Application.ScreenUpdating = True
Application.DisplayAlerts = True

MsgBox "All Sparkline listed successfully." & vbNewLine & vbNewLine & "Refer " & spl_sht & " sheet for Sparkline Details", vbInformation

End Sub
