Add a 3rd bar type in the graph (excel 2003).

Looking to have the 3rd bar showing a #4.  This bar should be split in 4 and another section above reaching 25.

Thanks,

Hello JP,

I'm afraid I don't understand your question and I don't understand your data.

Why does Product D get plotted on the secondary axis? Why does the total row show the value in the Product D column?

What do you mean with  "Looking to have the 3rd bar showing a #4."?? The black column shows a data label of 4. Are you talking about that black column? How should it be split in 4?

Can you mock up the desired results with the drawing tools to show us what your chart should look like?

cheers, teylyn

Hi Teylyn,

Thank you for offering to help.

1
The bar indicating value of 4.  Should be a stacked bar, the rest should reaming as is.
2
I am trying to indicate the volume in the current region (January and February).  Each month with a vlaue of 2 (so it is correctly indicated).
3
Then I need a third bard indicating the sum of Jan and February as the bottom portion of a stacked bar, while the other regions equal a value of 21.  So this stacked bar would clearly indicate the portion of the total for all the regions in months Jan and February.
4
Once I know how to address January and February, I would then do March, April and so on, in the same manner.

My difficulty is doing step 3 above.

Hi Teylyn,
I am not able to clearly express what I am looking for.  
I presented the graph as I had done it from the beginning.
Perhaps my next question will be better explained.
Thank you for the help you provide.
