I'm trying to create two stacked bars per month, one of Columns B&C
(Budget)
and one of Columns D&E (Actual).

The best I can get is one column per month with all 4 values stacked.

How can I turn this into two columns per month?

Keep the columns just the way they are, but instead of one row per record,
have three. First row is Budget, second is Actual, and third is blank.

Format the stacked columns to have zero space between columns, and let the
blank row serve as a space instead. Now your stacked columns will look
like pairs of columns.
