Default Need help with chart graph not on chart wizard

My apologies for not providing all the info in an earlier post...I was
heading out the door and in rush...

What I need is bar graph that will show 9 landfills that we are tracking for
tarped and untarped vehicles for the month of September and October. The
person sent me the following data in excel (I am only showing the first
landfill site). I need to create a graph that shows the Ridgecrest tarped
(1,948 & 45.07%) and untarped (2,374 & 54.93%) on the same bar for September
and the next bar will be the tarped (2,137 & 35.39%) and untapred (3,901 &
64.61%) for October. I will need to do this for the other 8 landfills. We
desire the tarped info. to be shown on the bottom half of the bar and the
untarped info. to be shown on the top half of the bar.

SEPT 8th - 30th Oct 1st - 31st
Tarped Untarp Tarped Untarp
Ridgecrest 1,948 2,374 2,137 3,901
45.07% 54.93% 35.39% 64.61%

I am not sure if the data is formatted to do what I want. I've been trying
several different variations of the data and have come close but not exactly
what we need to show. If you have any suggestions for reformatting the data
or know which bar graph will work, your assistance will be appreciated. If
you need more information, please let me know. I hope I have provided enough
information. Thank you.

Need help in creating chart graph. For example, we have tarped and untarped
data we need to track. I want to create a chart for 9 landfill sites and
show the tarped and untarped percentages on the same bar graph. I am
comparing October and November data. I am using excel 2003. Does anyone
know if this can be done? The chart wizards has something similar, but not
showing the data the way we want to present it. Thanks!
