making charts based on text categories
 
I have a column of nationalities and I want to make a pie chart to show the
percentage of each nationality. How do I do this?

Suppose you have this data in A1:B3

ABC 900
XYZ 1000
DEF 800

(Ref your subject line, you'd of course need the population *numbers* next
to the nationalities to plot the pie)

Select A1:B3
Click the "Chart Wizard" button
Choose "Pie" select the desired sub-type
Click Next and run through/complete the steps of the wizard
