problem with excel chart

[mulberry13]

Why would a chart be taking the 'data labels" and putting them in twice??? It's driving me nuts.

Without further information, do you have series name or category name checked in chart options->data labels?

let me take the easist data:

I have:
Armstrong
Indiana
Westmoreland
as the counties
Then based on the survey % results for each county

I select both of this columns as the 'selected data" but the chart is resulting in =
Armstrong Armstrong
Indiana Indiana etc.

I do have "merged" columns would that be causing the problem?

I am uncertain, easiest way to find out would be to un-merge them if possible.

I'm not an expert just the solution I had for a co-worker recently.
