How do I change the color of each bar in my graph?

When I click on the bar and go to "format data series" and change the color
of the bar, they all change. I want to change each individually, how to I
make them do that?
Thanks! Meenie

When you click on the bar, instead of clicking on it once click it twice.
Clicking on the bar twice should select the single bar. Then go ahead and
format it.

Make sure that's two single clicks, not one double click.

Wow, such a simple answer! Thanks Following "help" I was clicking on the
bar then going up to the menu, clicking on something there, then clicking on
the color... And here it is so simple! Ah if help were only so good
Thanks a lot
