It was helpfull but there was one problem for me.

It I turn gap with to 0 then all gaps are gone. But I want to that in chart between first (two collums) and second (two collums) would be some kind of gap.

Is that possible?
 


What is keeping you from increasing the gap?

If you have an open column between your two series and you do as SkipVoght said

Right-Click any series and select Selected Object
Options Tab: Gap width 0

It will work.

I will try it once more, but first time I did so, then if I change gap width to 0, then all caps between all coulumn did go away.
But as I said, I want that for ex two coulumn are gap with 0 and then there will be for ex gap 50, then two coulumn with 0 gap and so on.

Maybe I did something wrong in first time.

But thanks any way
 
Ok, I did it again and still I can't to it has I want.

I did a cahrt, then I clicked right click in one coulumn and choosed format data series. Then I choosed options and from there I change gap width.

If I turn it to 0, then will all gap disapear.
 



Did you try changing the gap to ZERO?

Did you format your source data with one EMPTY column between the First and Second data groups?

It WORKS!!!!!

You *must* have that empty column between the data groups.

Thanks you all,

now I understand what I did wrong - there wasn't empty column
 
Funny how something as simple as nothing can make a world of difference, isn't it? :)
