Creating Stacked charts with 4 rows of data

It's not clear from you post what you want or have already tried.
Can you post example file with current charts and more information about what you are trying to do.
Ok I attached the excel with the data that I am looking to put in a stacked bar graph. If you look you will see Pre-RC1-Fixed and RC1-Fixed i want those two values to be represented in one stacked bar graph and the other Pre-RC1-Overcome by Events and RC1 Overcome by events in a second stacked bar graph side by side on one chart.
By the way thanks for your last help on that other chart its still a work in progress
Have a look at the attached example. Then describe how the chart should look if not correct.
Nice is it possible instead of an object can you put it on its own chart
That's definitely it but what formula was used
No formula. It's all to do with data layout.
Notice the values are staggered and the chart is based on the range B1:D4 with the chart plotted by Rows.
Right click chart and pick Location. Specify chart sheet.
Ok but still based on the data I sent you are you highlighting. The values 24 14 11 and 20 ->Then select chart button choose Stacked Column from the Chart sub type.
Yes,
Select B1:D4
Chart wizard > Column chart > Stacked.
Set Plotby Rows.
If you only select those cells no data appears why B1 D4 instead A1 to B4. Also do you select series in rows or columns
B1:D4 because excel can not deduce the required chart when the numbers preceed the text AND they are not staggered.
Excel can only create the chart from the data, and it's layout, provided. It can not devine the expected chart by what you think you want. It is only a program after all
for the 3rd time, Set Plotby Rows
Actually I was looking at the chart you sent me I see now what you did in your chart
Ok ok ok I dont believe it was that simple to get it to generate a chart i thought you had to put all types of formulas in the excel chart...thanks again.....And the only reason i was questioning it is because i was looking at the other chart that i sent you was the confusion but thanks
