    How best to create a Chart for 2 years

    Hi,

    I have some Data for the year 2017 & 2018.

    What type of chart would be need to compare 2017 to 2018?

    Where i am stuck is i want 2017 & 2018 as the Primary and A, B & C as Secondary on the Chart. I know how to use the Primary/Secondary for 2 types of information but cannot get it to work for this scenario.

    Also what would be the best Chart to use for this information? [Bar, Line, Pie etc..etc..]

    Any help appreciated

    Andy

    Hi,

    Here's a suggestion...
    Cheating a little bitte by duplicating your rows of data and using empty cells. Create a combo chart (Bar and Line), set the lines to secondary axis and switch back to bar chart...
