Hi,

I have a table that lists employee names and their payscale. I want to put
this into a Christmas Tree chart (as a count of people per payscale) but
cannot find a 'chart' in Excel that will do it. I've seen them around and
would like to know how it's done.

I would also like to add a third variable (ethnicity) so will have the
chart: number of people in payband split by ethnicity.

Christmas Tree charts are similar to horizontal bar charts but are
'mirrored' on the opposite side. Here is a link to picture of what I mean.
