PivotTable Report - NEW USER

I have a report with drop down boxes ("receiving issues") that several people
are going to use and report certain issues they have with certain vendors. I
need to do a PivotTable that will show a chart listing this information.
I've never worked with a PivotTable and/or report before and I tried using
the help supplied on microsoft excel help, but it was confusing to me. Is
there anyone out there that can explain how to create this chart and have it
show what I want in terms a child could understand?

I know some things about Excel, but this is COMPLETELY NEW TO ME!!!
Thanks!!!

Hi,

Have a wander around Debra's site there is a whole bunch of good stuff
on pivot tables.
