RE: charts
Hi Julia
Thank you for your question, apolgies for the delay in replying.
Once you have created a chart, the rule of thumb is that if you double-click the part or area of the chart you wish to change, you will find all the formatting options for that piece of the chart.
So if you hold your mouse over one of the bars and double click, you will find that you can change the bar colour on the Patterns tab.
I hope this helps.
