HELP WITH CHART - COMPLEX ONE
you can achieve this with a pivot chart - it will let you group as
required - the only thing you have to do to your data (first of all) is add
a heading to your QTR column (I chose 'Quarter)! Go to the Data menu,
select your table (choose Pivot Table & Chart). go to the pivot chart
wizard and drag 'Quarter' into the row section, then drag all the 'years'
into the data section. click OK and you should have data in the pivot table
(as long as your data in your spreadsheet is numbers, not text), and you
should have the graph/chart you require on the 'Chart1' tab
