Column and bar graphs translate tables into graphs.
To define the data source of a column or bar graph:
- On the Data step, in the Data Based On drop-down list, select a table. A preview graph of the selected table appears in the Preview box.
- Select a Direction and Sequence for the graph. The preview box automatically updates to show the effect of your selections.
There are four possible Direction-Sequence combinations:
- Columns/Clustered: The values in the graph are displayed vertically as clustered columns.
- Columns/Stacked: The values in the graph are displayed vertically as stacked columns.
- Bars/Clustered: The values in the graph are displayed horizontally as clustered bars.
- Bars/Stacked: The values in the graph are displayed horizontally as stacked bars.
- Click Next to proceed to the next step, Choosing Colors.
