Problem charting two points of data
 
What am I missing? I want to chart the data below using a pie chart with a legend that tells me what each of the pieces of the pie represents. I tried selecting cells A1 and A2 and I have tried selecting cells A1:B2. All I end up with is a legend

51 Total Number of Employees to Trained
195 Total Number of Employees to Train

Problem charting two points of data
 
Patrick C. Simonds,
This is what I did to get a pie chart on the worksheet with the values:
In Cell A1 "Total Number of Employees to Trained"
In Cell A2 "51"

In Cell B1 "Total Number of Employees toTrain"
In Cell B2 "195"

I select cells A1:B2 (as you did).
I select the chart wizard. Select Pie. The default is the upper left pie
chart sub-type.
Select "Next" to preview the chart.
Select "Data Labels" tab. Select the "Value" in "Label Contains" area.
Select "Next" and select as "As object in:"
Then "Finish"
