Default On a column chart, how do you put a percent sign on the top most .

On a stacked column chart, how do you put a percent sign on the top most

Default On a column chart, how do you put a percent sign on the top mo

I got the percent sign on the top number, but like you said it doesn't line
the numbers up. I tried the second formula and it didn't work. Is there any
other way to make the numbers align?

Use a custom number format, say if the max value was 70:
[=70]##"%";##

The only problem with that is that it doesn't align the column of
numbers well, to fix that add a couple spaces after the others.:

[=70000]####"%";####" "

Try this:

[=70000]####"%";####_%

The underscore followed by a character tells Excel to leave a blank space as
wide as the character.
