How do I add charts or graphs to my Excel document?

• Once you have typed your data into rows or columns, select the data you want translated into a bar/graph.
• Go to the Insert tab on the menu bar and click on Charts

• Step 1: Chart Type. Choose the type of chart/graph that you want and hit next. If you are not sure what it will look like with your data, click on Press and Hold to View Sample.
• Step 2: Chart Source Data. You already have the data selected, so hit next again.
• Step 3: Chart Options. You can label the parts of your graph and choose other options.
• Step 4: Chart Location. Choose where you want your graph to appear.
• You may change these configurations at any time by right clicking on your chart/graph and choosing the step you want to change.
