Default Stacked cylinder issue


Need to create a stacked cylinder [or column] chart from the table as follows:

Date PresentOutput Capacity
6/29/2010 560,634 727,641
7/1/2010 579,232 727,641
7/2/2010 613,200 727,641


Each capacity needs to show as 100% [easy, that works fine] and each Present
Output needs to be the correct percentage of the Capacity, ie 77%, 80%, 84%
respectively, "filling up" each cylinder appropriately.

A good analogy would be "How full is the cup?".

But when I build the stacked chart, PresentOutputs calc out at approx 41%,
43%, and 45% respectively.
This doesn't make sense of course, but perhaps I'm misunderstanding how this
specific chart should work.

Even if I actually use percentages as the data series, it presents the same
anomaly.

Have tried a few workarounds to fool it, but no joy.

Does anyone have the solution?

Thanx in advance.

- Mike
