Default Q: Including subtotals in a pivot chart

You can't include the totals or subtotals in a pivot chart. You could
create a normal chart, based on the pivot table, and include the totals
in that.

On Jon Peltier's site, there are instructions for creating a normal
chart from pivot data:

Hello All:

I am presenting rolling 13 weeks of data on various manufacturing
problemin our operations with a pivot chart. On the chart I would like
to show the subtotals for each problem as well but I cannot figure
out a way of doing this.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!
