Using Excel 2007.

I am having difficulty figuring out how to widen the bars on an excel bar chart. I have all my data plotted and the bars are very narrow. There are only two data points. How do I get the bars to widen to fill out the chart?

thanks,
Ray
 


Hi,

Hope this works in 2007.

Right-click one of the bars and select Format Selected Object or Selected Object.

Select Options TAB.

Change Gap Width.

Skip,

for a NUANCE![tongue]
 
Right click the series. Select Format Data Series. Under Series Options change Gap Width.
