How do I add different cells to have one bar chart?
I have two different worksheets that I need to chart. I only want specific cells from each sheet to go into a bar chart. I can't seem to make just one continuous bar.

"Chart sizes with window frame" automatically re-checked

Exploded pie charts
I want to "explode" two slices together on a pie chart. That is 4 of the 6 pie slices would not be exploded and the two others would be exploded as a single wedge but with two different colors. Any hints or solutions? Dan - In Excel, you can only explode a pie chart uniformly. You can't just blow up independent wedges. One workaround is to hold Shift while selecting Copy Picture from the Edit menu, selecting the On Screen and As Picture options, pasting the picture of the chart, and ungrouping it. Now you can move the wedges independently. I didn't like the way ...
