    Help making a simple graph

    Hi I'm having incredible difficulty making a simple graph with this fantastic piece of software . This is all I need

    X values: 1, 3, and 6

    On the y axis, right above each one of the X values, I want the different values.

    Let's say House number 1 has had 4, 5, and 6 people in it. So I just need an x value of 1, with three dots above it representing 4 5 and 6.

    Thanks

    Re: Help making a simple graph

    HI! It worked almost perfectly; but is there a way to make the colors match? As in each column has it's own distinct colors? Thanks again!

    The problem is each "series" does not match up with the column, it's kind of randomly distributed. I need it uniform for each column.
