    Adding a 3rd bar on x-axis, and 3rd error bar

    Hi-

    What is the best way to add in column AG as a bar next to the current bars. I would want one solid color, and I don't need it brown up between positive, and negative. Also, I would want a 3rd error bar underneath for FX P&L. Looks like if I try to add a new data series they default to xy ranges, and forgot how to reverse. Please see attached example.

    Thanks

    Is this what you had in mind for the first part?

    Can you explain a bit more about what you want regarding the error bars?

    Sorry, that is not what I'm looking for. You just ignored what my graph was previously. It should be in same format is before. I'm just adding to it as I described above. Thank you.

    It may be that I am opening with my phone. I'll have to take a look when I get to work. Thamks

    Re: Adding a 3rd bar on x-axis, and 3rd error bar

    With respect, it is identical to your original chart, with the addition of an extra dataset. I intentionally left your original graph to the left of the one that I modified. I am sorry if I have not been able to help. It is clear that either I have misunderstood what you want, or you have not explained your requirement with sufficient clarity.

    Edit: I posted this before I saw the OP's posts 6 & 7.

    Thank you Glenn. That is exactly what I was looking for. I have re-attached with the error bar I have added. Can you walk me through how you added the columns in blue.

    Thank you

    Glenn. This looks different than the one I posted in. The columns slightly overlap in your example, where previously they didn't.
