Default Conditional columnar graph

I have 2 data points for every store across 2 qtrs.

E.g:

Store Qtr1 Qtr 2
StoreX 2.5 5

I want a column graph with the condition that if the Qtr 2 score is higher
than Qtr 1, then the column should be green in color and if it is lower than
Qtr 1, then it should be red in color.

How can i do this?

Default Conditional columnar graph

Hi,

You can add additional series based on formula. Format Less/Same/Greater
columns as required.

A1:= B1: =2.5 C1: =5
A2: = B2: =Q1 C2: =Q2
A3: =Store X B3: =B1 C3: =
A4: =Less B4: = C4: =IF($C$1<B3,$C$1,NA())
A5: =Same B5: = C5: =IF($C$1=B3,$C$1,NA())
A6: =Greater B6:= C6: =IF($C$1B3,$C$1,NA())

Create a chart based on A2:D6, plot by rows. Set the Overlap to 100. Right
click any series and pick Format Series. Overlap property is on the Series
Options tab.

Cheers
Andy
