Excel 2003 Graphs

1. How can I add a percentage to my Pivot Table graph of data?

I tried Pivot Table Field-->clicked on PivotTable-->Show data as:
Percentage--> % Of--> Select Base field-->Select Base Item-->

It only changed the X-axis from Numbers to 100 % and the graph looks
totally different. I just want a line from the bar showing the label
and a 45 % number. Just like a Pie Chart. I'm stressed out.

2. Is it possible to add additional data from another column to my
graph?

I tried this too to no avail but I will wait on a response.


I will provide a screenshot in a word.doc to whomever responds so you
can have a visual of what I'm talking about. I know that it is hard at
times to picture what exactly I'm talking about.

Thanks,

You cannot add non pivot data to a pivot chart. You can create a regular
chart from pivot data, and add whatever else you need:

Not sure if this is exactly what you want, but to show percentages in
a pivot table, click on the grand total, select Field Settings,
Options, Show Data as % of column
