Charting 3 columns help
 
I am working on a staffing chart with three columns:

Staffing Time Incident
6 3 1234
15 9 1234


I would like a graph to show
the "Time" on the left
the "Incident" on the bottom
and Staffing in the chart

I have racked my brain and have not figured out how, to make the chart work
that is :o)

Do I need to re-arrange the columns? a different way?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

In your brief sample, Incident has no variation. How do you want staffing to
appear in the chart?

To make a chart more easily, put the X values in the first column and the Y
values in subsequent columns. Unless it's an XY chart, delete the contents
of the cell atop the X column, which will help Excel parse the range into X
and Y values. Then create your chart. I'd suggest that you first try a line
chart, with Staffing and Time as two series plotted against Incident.
