related to PIE charts N BAR charts

[manish]

hello everyone,
i am using office 2007...
actually i have drawn some PIE charts and BAR charts with almost seven
variable each.. they are looking good in colors.. however i want the black n
white printout .. which is not giving the clear on the percentage in graphs..
is there any way to feed the PATTERNS in graphs for black n white picture..
like in books we have seen those things..

Manish,

Select the column or slice in which you want to use a pattern. Right-click - Format data
series (or data point, depending on your selection) - Patterns tab. In the Area section,
click "Fill effects," then the "Pattern" tab. Select a pattern -- there are many. You may
have to set the foreground to black and the background to white.

Some folks prefer bottom-posting.
But if you bottom-post to a reply that's
already top-posted, the thread gets messy.

i think you didnet get my question properly .. i need the pattern in the
graph not in the text.. to distinguish the seven colors in black n white
print.

Patterns such as Earl described are no longer available through the Excel
2007 user interface. You will have to rely on labels and shades of gray.
