Marimekko Chart

[liquiddimension]

Hello Mr Excel forum! <?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-comfficeffice" /><o></o>
<o></o>
I have been asked to put together a Marimekko Chart which until this afternoon I have never heard of. Can someone provide me some guidance on creating one of these or better yet if there is a template out there that is already available.<o></o>
<o></o>
I have seen some very complicated problems solved on this forum so I am hoping that this is a walk in the park. I really appreciate any assistance on this.<o></o>
<o></o>
Let me know if more information is needed.<o></o>
<o></o>
Thanks!<o></o>

They are horrible but you can try this for a step by step guide:

I forgot to say you can read a critique of them here:

I find them difficult to use but they seem to be a business school fad (like the equally useless tree diagrams)
