    How Do I Add More Bars to a Bar Graph

    Right now I have a bar graph that shows the actual time and estimated time.

    I would like to add more bars showing the break down between product.

    Right now, the horizontal axis labels are this:

    ={"Estimated"," Actual"}

    I want this:

    ={"Estimated"," Actual", "B30:B51"}

    Excel will not let me do this. How can I add these bars?

    Right click on the chart. One of the selections is Select Data. This brings up a dialog box that allows you to edit and add series. Just one word of caution. When you add a series the default is ={1} If you don't clear this our and select your range you get ={1}+Sheet!B30:B51 which will give you an error.
    One spreadsheet to rule them all. One spreadsheet to find them. One spreadsheet to bring them all and at corporate, bind them.

    A picture is worth a thousand words, but a sample spreadsheet is more likely to be worked on.
