with Microsoft Excel 2007Comprehensive 1e© 2008 Pearson Prentice Hall8 Determining which chart type to use: –Pie chart: To show the proportion of each item to the sum of the whole. All data points must be positive values and only one data range—row or column—may be charted. –Bar chart: To illustrate comparisons among individual items. Create a Column Chart

with Microsoft Excel 2007Comprehensive 1e© 2008 Pearson Prentice Hall9 Create a Column Chart Determining which chart type to use: –Column chart: To show data changes over a period of time or to illustrate comparisons among items. –Line chart: To display continuous data over time. Use for showing trends in data at equal intervals.

with Microsoft Excel 2007Comprehensive 1e© 2008 Pearson Prentice Hall10 Create a Column Chart A chart is a visual representation of numeric data. To create a chart: - Select the source data range. - Click on the Insert tab. - In the Charts group, select the preferred chart style.
