Graphing text
Hi, I have a spreadsheet that includes various demographic statistics. However, the fields that I would like to separate out and chart the frequency of are all text. Is there a way, without assigning number values, that I can graph the frequency of male vs. female, for example? I'd like to do the same for class, city, etc. Thanks! -- krjacobs32 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ krjacobs32's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=23520 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=519471 |

Graphing text
Create a PivotTable (Data | PivotTable and PivotChart Report...). Use the
text field of interest as the row field *and* the data field. XL will automatically use the COUNT() function for that field. -- Regards, Tushar Mehta http://www.tushar-mehta.com Custom business solutions leveraging a multi-disciplinary approach "krjacobs32" wrote: Hi, I have a spreadsheet that includes various demographic statistics.
