    Angry How to remove empty columns from the chart?

    Good afternoon.
    I have a problem and I could not find a way to reverse it.
    I have a Table where the Rows range from 1 to 8 and the columns are A, B, C.
    It turns out that A has value for all lines, but B only for Lines 1 and 2, and C for 3 to 8.

    I can not make a chart of it.
    I've done two different tables and excel does not understand me.
    The problem is that the returned graph has a gap, referring to the values of B for lines 3 to 8 and of C for lines 1 and 2, which do not exist.
    The images are shown below.

    TL;DR: I want two columns facing each number (1 to 8), but with 2 different colors for the second column of each number.

    Attach a sample workbook. Make sure there is just enough data to demonstrate your need. Include a BEFORE sheet and an AFTER sheet in the workbook if needed to show the process you're trying to complete or automate. Make sure your desired results are shown, mock them up manually if necessary.

    Remember to desensitize the data.

    Click on GO ADVANCED and then scroll down to Manage Attachments to open the upload window.

    Thanks for the help.

    In fact, what you did I did too.
    However, I did not like to put the C items as a secondary axis, getting over the other columns.

    Is there no way to leave the columns from 3 to 8, exactly the same as 1 to 2?
    I am with this level of detail because it is my research to finish my degree in engineering.

    AFAIK, you can't do that
    but you can try with this: Removing Gaps – Excel Clustered Column or Bar Chart
