Creating a custom chart [Excel 2003]
 
Is there a way to combine a stackable bar graph and a line graph? Or to add
a data field to a stackable bar graph that lies outside of the stacked data?

Basically what I'm trying to do is stack each quarters accomplishments as a
running total, but display the goal [in this case, as a line at the top, but
a separate bar next to the running total would work as well]. The x-axis
will be all the players, who must achieve different goals.

Thanks for your help.

Ignore the "built-in custom" types. Make a stacked chart with the stack data
(or all data if it's connected). If the line data is not included, copy it,
select the chart, use Edit menu Paste Special to add the data as a new
series. Select the series you want to change to a line, go to Chart menu
Chart Type, and change it.
