Add-in for More-Sophisticated Charts
I need to create charts that are more sophisticated than what Excel offers.
Are there add-ins or supplementary charts packages (either from MicroSoft or other firms) that can be easily used w/ Excel? Which ones are best (i.e., combination of best results, easiest to use, lowest cost, etc.)? Thx, J |

Add-in for More-Sophisticated Charts
I am building a management tool for "process improvement projects", so I
don’t yet know everything I want to chart. One thing I want to graph is the number of improvement projects, and their estimated $ benefit, by development stage (e.g., 20 projects in "Identified" stage estimated at $800k benefit, 17 projects in "Evaluation" at $741k, etc. thru other development stages all the way to "Implementing" and "Implemented"). My first thought is to show two Gantt bars for each stage with one bar for number of projects (n) on one axis and the other bar for $ value on the second axis ($). As far as I can tell, Excel forces the bars to overlap in a way that makes this chart idea useless. There must be a way to accomplish this chart in Excel or with an add-in or other program. Any ideas? "Jon Peltier" wrote: What kind of charts are you looking for?
