Is anyone able to advise what is the best way to draw a bar graph using Excel? I have been trying to work it out all morning. I want to have a numerical range on the y axis with the ability to compare the twelve months of the year over a four year period on the x axis so that I can compare turnover.

I am sure it is obvious when you know how but I am struggling!

IMHO X/Y scatter is the only graph type worth using.

Although a Z axis would be very useful on some occasions.
