The built-in custom types have limited usefulness. Here's how to make your
own combination charts.
Plot all data as stacked columns. Double click a column and on the Options
tab, select Series Lines. Select a series you want changed to a line, choose
Chart Type from the Chart menu, and choose the line style you want. Repeat
for another series, or press the F4 key.
