Data Labels

N

Nan

I have a bar chart that has actual sales and target sales for eac
salesperson. I would like to show the % of actual sales to target sale
in a data label. Under Chart Options on the Data Label tab, I see tha
there's a box that says Percentage but it is greyed out.

Is there a way to show my percentage on the graph? Currently, I hav
text boxes with the percentage in it. The problem is that I have t
reposition the text boxes all the time and they never quite seem t
line up correctly.

Thanks for any help

Calculate your percentages in the worksheet, then use one of the
following free utilities to apply the labels in this range to the data
points in your chart:
