Is there a way to show multiple values in a single bar (in a bar graph) that
add up to a total (example: 127, 129, 87, 85, 60, 126, 89 add up to 703)? I
want a sigle bar that goes to 703 but breaks the single bar down into these
segments (preferrably by color showing the smaller segment amounts within the
color. HELP!!!! Thanks!

Hi,

Is that not what the stacked column chart does?

Cheers

I'm having trouble with a specfic use for stacked charts. Right now my
axis are Date and value, with serises being categorys. It's currently
just clusterd. My categorys are just logins/attemps for diffrent user
groups. I'm trying turn each of the bars for the groups into a stacked
bar so you can tell which are failed and whcih are sucessful. Basicly
I have no idea how to format the data into excel in a good manner for
this.

I'v seen examples of clusters/stacked graphs
http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-ca;214119
http://peltiertech.com/Excel/ChartsH...sterStack.html

But the data doesn't seem to be displayed in the same manner I am
trying to Acomplish.

If you look at the CLusterStack.html example I basicly need the
clusters to contain of my Categorys each one getting it's own bar for
each date. Then each bar should be split into 2 diffrent displays.

At the very least can anyone confrim if this is possible?
