I have a pie chart and I dont want to display percentages, but the whole number value from the source. When I format the data label I get a fraction instead of the whole number.

I want the chart to display the actual numbers, and not a percentage, how can I do this?
Thanks
 

Excel Facts

Which lookup functions find a value equal or greater than the lookup value?
MATCH uses -1 to find larger value (lookup table must be sorted ZA). XLOOKUP uses 1 to find values greater and does not need to be sorted.
You don't want to change the format, you want to change the SOURCE of the data label.

You want to right click on the pie chart so the pie is selected. Choose the option "Format Data Series...". Under the Tab "Data Labels" and Under Label Contains check off "Value".

The number value from the source should now be your slice labels.

Right click your Pie Chart.
Choose "Chart Options".
Under "Data Labels" Tab, choose "Show Value" instead of "Show Percent".
