    Error Bars - Label not working

    I am having issues with data labels on error bars. It worked fine until I added more rows to the table, now the labels are all misaligned or missing.

    Help

    Hi sasb and welcome to the forum,

    It looks like you have selected the wrong range for Error Bars. See if the attached makes sense.

    Hi MarvinP

    Thank you for helping. The labels now work (which is great) but the error bars aren't relating to the differences between the 2 bars.

    Is there a way of keeping this but amending the error bar range?

    Thanks

    I just adjusted the range used for data labels. Value appears to match error bar now

    Yes.
    Select the data labels, then on the format page chose Values from Cells, select the appropriate range

    Re: Error Bars - Label not working

    Sorry to jump on this thread, but how does one even add data labels to error bars? I've been trying for the past 3 hours and can't seem to figure it out. When I right click on the error bars, I don't have an option to add data labels.

    Labels are added to columns (series "Invisible Bar") not to error bars themselves.
    Best Regards,
