I suggest using hidden table which will convert data to real numbers.
Here's function to convert:
Code:
[COLOR="Blue"]Function[/COLOR] RealNumber(Str [COLOR="Blue"]As[/COLOR] [COLOR="Blue"]String[/COLOR]) [COLOR="Blue"]As[/COLOR] [COLOR="Blue"]Double[/COLOR]

    [COLOR="Blue"]Dim[/COLOR] suffix [COLOR="Blue"]As[/COLOR] [COLOR="Blue"]String[/COLOR], multiplier [COLOR="Blue"]As[/COLOR] [COLOR="Blue"]Double[/COLOR]
    
    Application.Volatile
    
    [COLOR="Blue"]With[/COLOR] CreateObject("VBScript.RegExp")
        .Pattern = "(MB|GB|KB)"
        suffix = .Execute(Str)(0)
    [COLOR="Blue"]End[/COLOR] [COLOR="Blue"]With[/COLOR]
    
    [COLOR="Blue"]Select[/COLOR] [COLOR="Blue"]Case[/COLOR] suffix
        [COLOR="Blue"]Case[/COLOR] "KB": multiplier = 1024#
        [COLOR="Blue"]Case[/COLOR] "MB": multiplier = 1024# * 1024#
        [COLOR="Blue"]Case[/COLOR] "GB": multiplier = 1024# * 1024# * 1024#
    [COLOR="Blue"]End[/COLOR] [COLOR="Blue"]Select[/COLOR]
    
    RealNumber = [COLOR="Blue"]CDbl[/COLOR](Replace(Str, suffix, vbNullString)) * multiplier

[COLOR="Blue"]End[/COLOR] [COLOR="Blue"]Function[/COLOR]

Sir,

I am sorry to say that macros are disabled in office. Is there any other way ?

Thank you

If macros are disabled, then convert digits yourself, delete data in yellow table and insert converted values. 1 KB = 1000 bytes. 1 Kb = 1024 bytes.

Your data is in KB's MB's and GB's ... so some of the numbers are miniscule when compared to others ... what are you expecting the chart to look like exactly?
