"Paired" stack column charts

**bardo** · 06-13-2007, 09:24 AM

All,

am creating stacked charts with a number of categories' data. I have 5 rows of data. For each month, I want to see two stacked columns (i.e. a stacked column with 3 rows of data, followed by a separate stack with the remaining two rows of data - only in the same chart)

Using a normal stacked chart - by adding series, the remaining two rows of data are added to the first stack, thus creating a single stack with 5 constituent sets of data.

Could anyone help? Does this make sense?

Thanks, in advance,
bardo

Hi,

not 100%, but perhaps a look at some of Andy Pope's charts might help, firstly try http://www.andypope.info/charts/stackside.htm
