31. Create column chart for purchased services We create a column chart for the expenditure category Purchased Services where the height of each column indicates the relative size of the expenditure on the different services. When I created this chart, the labels for medical specialist and consulting dietician were on one line. To force all of the labels to display on two lines, I returned to the original data table and split medical specialist and consulting dietician by typing an Alt-Enter before the second word in each label. This change is automatically carried forward to the chart. Creating Budget Charts, Slide 31Copyright © 2004, Jim Schwab, University of Texas at Austin
