Any Excel Gurus?

Hi guys,

At the new job they have Office 2007 which, is pretty and nice... but doesn't have some of the things the older versions have!!!

Like a chart wizard for example - where you select the info you want in a chart and click on wizard and you can change it all.

This is what I have below:

As you can see, not all of the text I need is selected correctly, can anyone help?!

Thanks

Now why isn't my picture showing here?! I give up!

My guess is you want a chart with the columns on, right?

You just highlight the 4 cells, go insert, Column (chart) and that should do it.

If not, right-click the chart, hit 'select data' and then you'll just have to modify the area which it selects the data from.

Yeah I tried that, I cannot get it working. It is doing my brain in. Why do they have to complicate something that works?!

Oh my God.

Will try this at work in the morning and see if I can spot something obvious (have Office 2003 here but 2007 in the office).
