By the way, if I do this, which makes the chart look much clearer, how do I specify that the range no longer goes from say $A$1:$N$29 but the range is A1-to-A29, C1-to-C28, E1-to-E29 and so on? The problem is that my chart legend now includes those cells that contain the means of transport.

 Mon            4       Car     6         Bicycle
 Tue            2       Train   4     Car
 Wed            5       Plane   3     Car
 Thursday       2       Bus     2     On foot
 Friday         Car     5         Rickshaw

Subject: [discuss] non-numeric data in calc chart....


Hi everyone. I have a bar chart to plots distances travelled each day over a set week, for example

                Week1   Week2   Week3   Week4...
Mon             4       6       
Tue             2       4
Wed             5       3
Thursday        2       2
Friday          5       6

What I would like to do is to somehow insert in each cell the means of transport, car, plane, bicycle etc. If there any way I can do this, it seems that whenever I put in any non-numeric value Cacl treats the cell as empty? Thanks in advance.

Rory.
