Lets have another go
Try =SUMPRODUCT(--($A$2:$A$11<""),--($B$2:$B$11="red")) to work out the
number for the chart, changing the cell references & colour as required and
chart form that information

I am not sure what you want - is it a graph of how many yellow etc?


If it is then you can count the number of yellow with
=COUNTIF($B$2:$B$11,"yellow"), and then do the same for each colour and chart
from this information

Hi,


I am not very good wit microsoft excel...so any help is greatly
appreciated.


I need to create a chart with below mentioned data in two columns. The
chart should show the number of gaps in each bundle. (i.e Yellow -2,
Red - 4 and Orange - 1). Since the data is in the below format, how
can I calculate the number of gaps in each bundle and make a chart out
of it?


Gap ID Bundle
gap_01 Yellow
Red
gap_02 Orange
Red
gap_03 Red
gap_04 Red
Yellow
gap_05 Yellow
gap_06 Red
gap_07 Red


Waiting for your reply. Thanks in advance!

Thanks John for trying to help me out.


I want the number of Gap ID's for the corresponding colour. I think
your solution will give the value 3 for yellow. But there are only two
entries(gap_01 and gap_05) for yellow under Gap ID. Similarly 4
entries for Red. So in this case, the chart should represent value 2
for yellow, 4 for red and 1 for orange. Can you help me out in this??
