Hi
I have simple table like the one below. I wanted to insert a bar chart. I am wondering if I can change the color of each individual chart to different color (not manually), I know if i click on any bar and then click again to select that bar only (lets say Mary's bar) then I can change the color but I am wondering if I somehow link he chart color to the person name in columnA? thanks

Excel Facts

Is there a shortcut key for strikethrough?
Ctrl+S is used for Save. Ctrl+5 is used for Strikethrough. Why Ctrl+5? When you use hashmarks to count |||| is 4, strike through to mean 5.
