Can I select noncontiguous data to include in a chart? Yes. To select noncontiguous cells and ranges, select the first cell or range and then press and hold while selecting additional cells and ranges. How do I create an organizational chart in Excel? You can add an organizational chart to track the hierarchy of an organization or a process. When you insert an organizational chart, Excel creates four shapes to which you can add your own text; you can add additional shapes and branches to the chart as needed. To create an organizational chart, click the Insert tab and then click the SmartArt button. 17_571941-ch12.indd 19717_571941-ch12.indd 197 4/9/10 7:43 PM4/9/10 7:43 PM 198 33 22 11 3 Click and drag a handle to resize the chart. • A frame appears, representing the chart as you resize it on the worksheet. 4 Release the mouse button.

Move and Resize Charts After creating a chart, you may decide that it would look better if it were a different size or located elsewhere on the worksheet. For example, you may want to reposition the chart at the bottom of the worksheet or make the chart larger so it is easier to read. Moving or resizing a chart is like moving or resizing any other type of Office object. When you select a chart, handles appear around that chart; you use these handles to make the chart larger or smaller. Moving the chart is a matter of selecting it and then dragging it to the desired location.
