is it possible to use a custom number format in a pie chart to show the number required as a value, and also as a % of the Total. So, say you have 4 distinct elements to the pie chart. Values might be Element 1, 300, element 2, 100, element 3, 200, and element 4, 500. Grand total is 1100. Element 1 is 27%, Element 2 is 9%, Element 3 is 185, and Element 4 is 45%. How can I get the Label for each piece of pie, to be in the format "Element 1, 300, 27%"?

Select a range of cells. The total appears in bottom right of Excel screen. Right-click total to add Max, Min, Count, Average.
On the Layout Tab, DATA LABEL options, you can tick "Category Name", "Value" and "Percentage" and you should have what you want

ofcourse they do. Forgive me, its been a long week. I am actually using bar graphs not pie charts. Bar charts don't have this option. hence my search for a work around of some sort.
