Barb,
Thanks, that combines the small percentage data but then shows those points as a subset pie or bar. I just want to combine them into one? Any further suggestions?

It might be easiest of all to do a little math in the spreadsheet to add up these Misc slices, and plot the adjusted data. - Jon ------- Jon Peltier, Microsoft Excel MVP Peltier Technical Services Tutorials and Custom Solutions http://PeltierTech.com/ _______ Mark C wrote: Barb, Thanks, that combines the small percentage data but then shows those points as a subset pie or bar.
