Default Complex Graph

Not sure if you can format a plot in that way, but if not then you could try
using VBA to create a "plot" using shapes on a worksheet.

I've been asked if I can create a horizontal bar graph in which 10
counties each have 9 areas in which they will be compared with a score
between 0 and 100%. In each of the 9 categories, there is a target
percentage. The Director wants to see a horizontal bar chart with the
results for each county in each of the 9 categories, but counties
color-coded by whether or not they met the target percentage. So if
county x scored 85% and the target was 87%, the bar would be red. If
they scored better than 87%, it would be green.

I don't think this is doable in XL. Does anyone know how to do
something like this?

Thanks.

Dave
