What values are stacked? The numbers in B and C? With the date on the
vertical axis? Excel doesn't support a line chart with a vertical category
(i.e., date) axis. Make an XY chart, with two series. The first uses A as Y
and B as X, the second uses A as Y and either C as X or another column that
computes B+C for X to simulate a stacked chart.

Note that stacked lines are confusing; people don't readily see that one
series builds on the previous one. Stacked areas and columns are less
frequently misunderstood.

It is a stacked line chart. I have tried rearranging the columns and I
can't
get it to display the way I need. I'll keep trying, but any suggestions
will
be appreciated. Thanks!

What type of chart? In general, if you put the Y value columns in the
worksheet to the right of the X value columns, Excel arranges the chart
the
way you want. You could bring up the chart data dialog and change what
values are used for X and Y values, but it's not as easy in 2007 as in
2003.

I have four columns. "A" is for a date, "B" is a number, "C" is a
number,
and "D" is a dollar amount. When I create the chart, I want the date
to
be
on the left side of the chart but I can only get it to display at the
bottom.
I've tried using the Transpose option, but that didn't work. Any
suggestions?
