How do you select the correct data for a chart?

RE: charts

Hi Katherine,

Thank you for your question.

In an ideal world the data should be arranged in columns with field headings.

If you had the following data below from A1 to B5:

Name Sales
Simon 23000
Desmond 35000
Miriam 40000
Alicia 50000

Select the entire range including the headings as this automatically names the Value series as Sales.

I hope this answers your question.

Regards

Simon
