    Combination & Stacked chart

    Hi There,

    Am wondering if i can create a combination graph that also uses stacked columns?

    I have 2 data ranges which I would like to combine, and a third forecasted range of data that i would like to plot as a line to allow me to see how close the forecasting is to the actuals. Is there any way of doing this?

    Example Data

    Create a stacked column chart on all 3 data series.
    The select the forecast series and change the chart type to Line

    It would be easier if you could change your data lay out, see attached.
