Simple Stacked Bar Chart

Question

Another Newbie question:

I have a very simple set of data, and I'm trying to create a stacked bar chart.  
The current dataset layout is:

Date                FieldA                   FieldB
05/01/2011          211                      213
05/02/2011          500                      633
.......

Seems like a simple task, but nothing I've done so far works.

Thanks

Did you try Graph Builder? You don't need to reorganize your data but you do need a little right clicking to choose Bars and change the style to Stacked. Here's a script that runs on Big Class.

Hi Thomas:

Here is an example - it requires re-arranging your data a little bit.

menu:  Graph, Chart (the key is two categories, here: (date and field)),
If you do it interactively, first result is a paired-bar graph - transformed via the
Stack Bars option under the red-triangle.

e.g.

date                      field              Amt
01/05/2011	A	211
01/05/2011	B	213
02/05/2011	A	500
02/05/2011	B	633
