You can see the dialog box for step three has several tabs, but I’ll discuss only the Titles tab. You can add text for the following items:
For the example you should enter only a chart title. I used “Budget Jan–Jun.” Then click Next to go on.
This final dialog box gives you two choices as to where the chart is placed. These choices are
As new sheet— The chart is placed on a new worksheet. This is a special kind of worksheet called a chart sheet, and it can contain only this chart—it cannot contain any data or other charts. Enter the name for the new sheet in the space provided.
As object in— The chart is created as a separate window on an existing worksheet (selected from the drop-down list). The worksheet can contain other data and charts, and the new chart can be moved and resized as desired.
For the example, select Sheet1 from the As Object in drop-down list and then click the Finish button. The chart is inserted into the worksheet along with the data. The chart might cover some of the data but the data is still present. Use the mouse to change the size and position of the chart as needed.
There’s lots more you can do with Excel charts, and I’ll let you explore these features on your own when and if you need them. Remember, Excel has excellent online documentation, and that’s the first place you should turn when you want to learn more about the program.
Now that we have covered the fundamentals of using Excel, it’s time to move on. In the next chapter you’ll learn about some of the tools Excel provides for performing financial calculations.
