Displaying a Chart
- The Beyond 20/20 Browser
allows you to chart data and creates a new window to display the chart
in. In order to make a chart, you must first select the Geographic
area (choose Sudbury (3553007) C 00000) by using the Arrow
buttons on the toolbar or by selecting View and choosing Dimension
from the menu (see Lesson # 2 steps 2 to

would like to display on the chart by clicking on column headings and row
headings. For this example, choose English and French for
the
column headings and ages 5 to 14
for the row headings.
- Click on the Chart
button on the toolbar or choose View
from the menu bar and select Chart from the menu. This displays a
Chart.

type of chart, right-click (right mouse button) on the chart and select
Chart Options from the menu. A Chart Option
box shows up.

type. You can also make other changes found in the Other
