Default Reshaping histograms

I tried to reply earlier, but I don't know if it worked. Your solution was
great; I hadn't realized that dragging like this changed the cells. So now,
I can get the statistics for the individual columns of each histogram to make
sure they are equivalent, but which ones would you suggest; mean standard
deviation, kurtosis, others?

You could modify the data in the cells.

If you have Excel 2003 or earlier you can select a point (a bar), which
takes a single click to select the series then another single click to
select the point, then move the mouse to the top of the bar and the
cursor changes to a two headed vertical arrow. Click and drag the end of
the bar, and the data in the worksheet will change accordingly.

Excel 2007 has lost this capability.

I have two data series and I can create two different histograms showing the
shape of the data in each series. I want to reshape one histogram (modify
the data) so that it looks like the other histogram. How do I do this?
