Bar chart with broken or jagged line on Y-Axis

[kim.forbes]

Hello All,

This is more complicated chart than I am used to working on, so any
assistance will be appreciated.

Here is my data:

Frequency of Drinks Heterosexual Bisexual Lesbian
None/<1/month 77.45 66.36 67.83
1-3/month 9.92 14.09 9.84
1/week 3.02 2.27 5.53
2-4/week 5.72 9.09 7.38
5-6/week 2.4 3.64 4.92
7-13/week 1.11 4.09 2.25
14-24/week 0.29 0.45 2.05
25-39/week 0.06 0 0
40+/week 0.03 0 0.2

I would like to change the y-axis scale so that it jumps from 20% to
60% and doesn’t show the in-between values. I think when graphs
usually do this the y-axis has a jagged or broken line in the middle
to show that those values are not displayed.

Thanks!
Kim
