I have Excel 2003, and I am working with charts. I am not sure how to
interpret the stacked column chart. For example, my January sales column is
divided into three colors: Blue (for Jane), Red (for Joe), and Yellow (for
Betty). The Blue portion of the column stretches from 0% to 40%; the Red
portion of the column stretches stretches from 40% to 65%; and the Yellow
portion of the column stretches from 65% to 100%. I interpreted this to mean
that Blue (Jane) was responsible for 40% of the total sales for January; Red
(Joe) was responsible for 25% of the total sales for January; and that Yellow
(Betty) was responsible for 35% of lthe total sales for January. Is this
interpretation correct?

Thank you for any help you can give me.
 
probably. check the input value and if it doesn't total 100% then you are
correct

Thank you, Challa. I clicked on the URL and got the message "This page could
not be displayed." In general, is my interpretation correct?
 
Thankyou for correcting. I never knew it was case sensitive. Its my favourite
link Peltier. I learned a lot myself. Thanks once again.
