PivotChart is based on a PivotTable: they go together. This lesson
begins with a PivotTable. After the PivotTable is set up, we will
review the PivotChart options in Microsoft Excel 2010.
You can use a spreadsheet that you
created or download a sample spreadsheet if you wish.

Memo to Self: You do not have to MATCH the numbers shown on
these pages. It is more important that you begin with some data and
understand the options.
