Yes, but it requires too much formatting. My boss wants something she can
keep and enter data into on a month by month basis and have it
automatically
spit out a graph. I have already set this up for her previously, she's
just
seeing if I can add another set of bells and whistles. But I've come to
the
conclusion she can't have all the data on one graph and have it make any
sense. She seems fine with this, thank heavens :) Thanks for all your
help!

Have you thought of using a stacked chart with vertical separation?

Thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately, this will not work for me,
as I
have a chart that displays five columns (I mispoke before I am using a
column
chart, not a bar chart) for each month. The idea is to track the
performance
in each of the 5 categories across the year.

Hello all. I am constructing bar graph to display the numerical
results
of
our quality metrics, and my boss would like the maximun and the
mininum
displayed for each category as dots over and in the individual
bars.
I
know
I can add error bars, but is there any way to do it as a simple
dot
and
not
have the lines? I hope that makes sense.
