    The country tabs should be placed or the text in those tabs should be replaced in the descending order of the transaction amounts.

    Hi sqledge

    The format of your data does not lead itself to be easily manipulated by Excel. See the attached where a beter way of keeping your data is shown along with a graph that can be easily constructed.

    Read a few articles on Excel Tables to see what I mean, like:
