    Re: help needed with charts

    Thank you so much.
    Is there a way to show this in line graph. One color line for each reason?
    Also I have data for 300 days and several reasons for each day. THe Pivot chart looks very busy because of the number of entries. How do I show the data weekly? (converting daily to weekly)

    thank you again.
