PivotChart not displayed correctly

Hello,

I have a dataset that needs to be inserted into pivotchart.

when i "select all columns for pivotchart --> insert --> pivotchart --> existing table(same tab)"and put the values in the VALUES box server name into AXIS

the value data changes equal to each other therefore rendering it useless.

i have tried changing the values field settings 

Home , settings , advanced , use system operators to " comma's " (since the values row has dots) also didn't work

removing the letters from the values row also didn't work.

also changing chart type did not work

"i would love to upload a picture to clearify the situation but technet wont allow me "

this is a first time since it happened, it worked fine before , but since i changed my Query its not displaying the chart right anymore.

how can i create a pivotchart with the values from dataset that will be displayed correctly?

thank you in advance,

Enma

Hi Enma,

Based on your description, I cant reproduce your issue. And Pivot Chart works fine in my own environment. Could you tell me which version of Excel are you using? And where did you get the data source?

If possible please upload a sample via OneDrive or a screenshot so that I can get more accurate solutions to this problem. For verifying your account you can post a comment here and they will help you verify the account, so you can upload a screenshot.

--these are the results from the query

PRIMARY MSDBData C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL10.MSSQLSERVER\MSSQL\DATA\MSDBData.mdf ROWS [msdb] 10% Unlimited 364.19 MB 317.00 MB


when i put the columns into their respective "server name AXIS,dbname AXIS, space_used/space_free into VALUES"

the space_used and space_free value change from 5.19MB to something entirely else, same for all my values.

i use Excel 2013 and SQL Server management 2008 2012 and 2014 

as soon as my account is verified i upload a screenshot to help me  clearify it. 

please wait

Enma
