By Diane Koers

In Excel 2010, data tables display the chart values in a grid beneath the chart.
They are helpful if you need to see exact values along with a graphical display,
such as when using a 3-D chart. Also, they may be preferable to data labels,
which can be difficult to read within some charts.


1CLICK ANYWHERE ON THE CHART YOU WANT TO ADD A DATA TABLE TO.

Data tables can be added to charts on a regular worksheet, but it isn’t a common
practice because the worksheet itself already displays the data.


2ON THE CHART TOOLS LAYOUT TAB, CLICK THE DATA TABLE BUTTON IN THE LABELS GROUP.

Options include None (to remove a data table), Show Data Table, and Show Data
Table with Legend Keys.






3MAKE A SELECTION FROM THE DATA TABLE MENU.

You can select More Data Table Options to see additional formatting options for
data tables.


4CLICK OK.

A data table showing the actual values appears at the bottom of the chart.
