What kind of chart (use Excel's definition, from the Chart Type dialog)?
What version of Excel?

If you're using a 3D chart type, switch to a 2D type. 3D types have many
limitations, including not supporting error bars. They also are not a good
choice for displaying data cleanly.

Hi

I am trying to place error bars in my data, and when I right click any of
the bars and choose FORMAT DATA SERIES I do not have the Y-Error Bars
Option?
I have the following tabs:

1. Patterns
2. Shape
3. Data Labels
4. Series Order

Could anyone please assist me in rectifying this error.

Thanks in advance
