    Default Quick Microsoft Excel Help

    I'm guessing this would go here, but either way...I need some help with Microsoft Excel.

    I've created a bar graph from the values that I have on my spreadsheet. However the labels for each bar on the X-Axis have been preset to 1, 2, 3...etc. I want to change these labels to the name's that I have listed...how do I do that?

    See screenshot for reference. The values I want to change are highlighted in red. The names that I want change them to are in the highlighted cells under "Gangstas"...haha don't ask about the chart data itself...it's the assignment, not my choice.

    Ah yeah I guess that's where I did it then, god I hated that class haha. I made a D in it. MATLAB is the sole reason why I switched from Engineering to Management.

    I might be thinking about switching to STAC, even though everyone's bagging on me about it because "that's what all athletes do"...but people have told me that I'm a great writer, and as much as I'd like to go into designing cars, I'd very much like to go into journalism and write for a car magazine or something.

    I don't know...I just need to stick it out for the rest of the semester and then I can relax and sort everything out.

    Yeah I hate the whole "that's what all athletes do" bs, just because you may be smart enough to handle engineering doesn't mean that you necessarily should. Well good luck on your lab.

    Maybe coming to Georgia Tech was a mistake...but no regrets there, because I actually wanted to come here. At least with "Science, Technology, and Culture"...it's not strictly journalism...it's how technology applies to culture, I guess.

    Thanks man...still need the help though! Google isn't doing much for me...and the Paper Clip doesn't help at all.
