    Displaying data labels in permilles

    Hi I am plotting some data and some labels are represented with less than 1%. This shows as 0% on my graph. Is it possible to show it in permilles?

    Re: Displaying data labels in promiles

    Welcome to the forum.

    There are instructions at the top of the page explaining how to attach your sample workbook.

    A good sample workbook has just 10-20 rows of representative data that has been desensitised. It also has expected results mocked up, worked examples where required, relevant cells highlighted and a few explanatory notes.

    Although we value your privacy as much you do, it could be important that members have a rough idea of your location as the solutions they offer may be affected by your locale. For instance, you might in the future post questions which are related to your regional settings: northern hemisphere is not precise enough for this.

    With this in mind, please update your profile to something more precise (something such as UK, Europe, USA, UAE, etc. will suffice).

    Thank you for helping us to help you.

    Re: Displaying data labels in promiles

    If 1 percent is 1/100, permille is 1/1000.

    Another solution that would satisfy my requirements is to display 0.9% for example

    'Permille' is NOT the word you used in your title or opening post!!!

    It was a typo. No need to use exclamation points. In my previous reply I have explained what I meant. I have also edited the original question.

    Re: Displaying data labels in permilles

    I shall use exclamation marks if I choose! And they were perfectly apt. I wasted time Googling 'promile' in order to try and help you.

    Good luck with this.

    Re: Displaying data labels in permilles

    So you are not helping me because I made a mistake. "Promile" was the first translation of the word from my language that I found hence I used it. You pointed out my mistake and I corrected it. If you decide to help me I will find it really helpful. Otherwise thanks a lot and have a nice day.

    I am not helping because your response was ill-mannered, not because you made a mistake.

    Take more care over your titles and opening posts in future - what you say there is CRUCIAL to your helper understanding your query and being able to help you. It is far from trivial.

    Maybe this:

    =IF(100*A2/$L$2<1,ROUND(10*100*A2/$L$2,1)&"?",ROUND(100*A2/$L$2,1)&"%")

    copied across... and use the values displayed there in your chart labels.

    You can change the Label Options formatting category from General to Number to show decimal places in the percentages.
