Default Rounding numbers in charts

HHi U'm not very good with computers. And I did a spreadsheet on excel and
had percentages I wanted to put in a chart...when I created the chart
(piechart) the values came out all inacurate. I wanted one to be 8% and it
came out 6%. I heard you couold try and fix it using decimal places but
that only makes a minor difference. Is there something I dont know about
thats fairly simple to do?

Hi Andrea

If you'ld like to give us an example of your data (e.g. three categories and
the associated percentages) and explain to us where the percentages came
from - did you type them in or are they the result of a formula - if a
formula - what is the formula (and what is in the cells that the formula
relates to etc). ... we'll be happy to help.

Cheers
