When Excel is installed on your computer, Excel will automatically open.

Whatever it is, it does not matter.

In our spreadsheet, we have sample data, used in the graph in our Word document.

The sample data that were used in the spreadsheet, can of course be adapted to our needs.
For this, place the cursor in the cell, and type information.
The number of columns and rows that are included in our chart is placed in a blue box in the spreadsheet.
We can customize by placing the mouse pointer over the bottom right corner of the blue edge. When it changes into a diagonal double arrow, click and drag it to the desired location.As soon as you change anything in the spreadsheet, it is applied in the chart in the Word document.

When you have entered all your data in the spreadsheet, you can close it.
Click on the X in the upper right corner of the application window.
The “Chart Tools” contextual appears with three tabs:
“Design”, “Layout”, and “Format”.
To change the graph style you click one of the examples in the “Chart Styles”.
