Charts within Charts

Hi Everyone,

I have to chart safety statistics for my company and currently do using a simple 12 month rolling column chart. My boss has recently asked if the bar chart could begin with columns showing the averages of previously completed FY and then rolling into the current years month by month stats. I'm assuming I'd have to source the data for these average results separate from the current monthly performances but can't seem to figure out if I can split the source data in a single chart, or if excel can manage this?

My X-Axis Series should look like

FY2005/6,FY2006/7,FY2007/8, Jul 08, Aug 08, Sep 08.

Any help would be much appreciated!

Simplest way would be to use 2 series for the 2 data sets.
These can share the x-axis categories.
