Does anyone know how to combine a line bar bar graph with a stacked bar graph?
Basically the graph would have 4 bars and then the 5th bar would be a stacked bar while the rest of the bars remain solid. Here is a link to a picture I posted on the UK forums. So far everyone has told me it is impossible, but I don't believe it is. http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/...092#post721092 Please Help!! I have tried everything I could think of, but I ended up using microsoft expression design. |

Not impossible,
Look at Jon Peltier's tutorial at http://peltiertech.com/Excel/ChartsH...sterStack.html and download my little sample at http://www.edferrero.com/content/ClusterAndStack.xlsx Ed Ferrero www.edferrero.com |

Jon,
Your graph is close to what I'm looking for but every column in your graph is a stacked bar graph. I'm looking for 3 solid columns and 1 Stacked column.

Thanks for the reply. The Graph I'm looking for is kind of like Jon's graph except I'm looking for 3 solid columns and 1 stacked column. All of Jon's columns are stacked on his graph "Ed Ferrero" wrote: Not impossible, Look at Jon Peltier's tutorial at http://peltiertech.com/Excel/ChartsH...sterStack.html and download my little sample at http://www.edferrero.com/content/ClusterAndStack.xlsx Ed Ferrero www.edferrero.com |

All of Jon's columns are stacked on his graph Yes, but have you noticed they're stacked with *different* clusters? The basic insight that leads to being able to do these is that a "solid" column is just a cluster of one, or a cluster in which every element but one has the value *zero*. Once you grok that, it all becomes obvious. -- Del Cotter NB Personal replies to this post will send email to , which goes to a spam folder-- please send your email to del3 instead. |

Thanks for the reply,
Yeah I tried that, but had no luck. "Posterizer" wrote: In article , Sound Into Words wrote: Jon, Your graph is close to what I'm looking for but every column in your graph is a stacked bar graph.

Del,
Thanks for the reply. I thought about what you wrote, and that it might be able to work, but just to get some clarification I will give you some variables: 1. y axies = "1-1000" 2. x axies = "Week 26 - Week 28" (3 series) The first series would contain 4 solid columns(or a range between "1-1000") and one stacked column which would make of 3 different ranges(colors) of "1-1000" The other 2 series would be the same but just a different set of data. So would this scenario work with the "Stacked Cluster Graph" This would be part of a report that is ran once a week.

Each row corresponds to a column position. For the column positions that are
a solid column, the other columns should be blank or zero. For the column positions where you have stacks, then you have more than one nonzero entry. It should be arranged something like this: Solid 1 Solid 2 Solid 3 Stack 1 Stack 2 Stack 3 Solid 1 [data] Solid 2 [data] Solid 3 [data] Stacked [data] [data] [data] Solid 1 [data] Solid 2 [data] Solid 3 [data] Stacked [data] [data] [data] Solid 1 [data] Solid 2 [data] Solid 3 [data] Stacked [data] [data] [data] - Jon ------- Jon Peltier, Microsoft Excel MVP Tutorials and Custom Solutions Peltier Technical Services, Inc. - http://PeltierTech.com _______ "Sound Into Words" wrote in message ...
