Default Multi axis chart

Hi, I want to show a stacked chart, ie 4 products sales value in a given
month. But then compare it to the prvious years results.

I know you could use a 3D chart to show 3 axis, however I can't find how to
have the 2 axis (last year and this year) stacked.

Hope you understand what I'm asking

Default Multi axis chart

A 3D chart is more likely to obscure than show anything.

I'm not sure what you're looking for. Perhaps a stacked-clustered column
chart, where each column in the cluster has the four stacked values for each
year.

For some reason this is by far my most popular blog entry.

I was thinking he might like a vertical panel chart
