    Any way to build one stacked bar chart for three groups of data?

    I have three groups of data made of several cells of data each and would like
    to represent them on one chart. I would like to have each group represented
    as a separate stacked column so I can see the individual columns for each
    cell within the group and still see the relationship of the groups to each
    other. Is this possible?

    yes. Try using two columns (or rows) not one for you axis labels. This allows you to have separate columns for sub-groups under each broad axis label.

    eg in the attached example, having the names of months as the major axis label and the names of staff as the secondary label, you can show the components of staff pay in side-by-side columns each month.

    Thank you for the reply. I found my answer in Jon Peltier's page

    The link you provided came up as invalid but, thanks anyway!
