Bar Graphs
I am trying to duplicate a bar graph that was probably done in Excel. The bars on the bar graph are 3D Vertical bars. When I created my graph program and displayed my 3D bar graph, the bars in my graph are taller than the bars in the bar graph created in Excel. The bars in the bar graph in Excel are longer and flatter. Is there anyway to get the bars in my bar graph to look the same? Thanks.

I am not a graphing expert, but if you are using the gui tool to create the bar, I think you can change the 'values ratio'. Not the proper term, but it's been a while.

I think you can do a lot with the graphs, also in excel you can change the look and feel of the bars.
It will however never be exactly the same (why should it) What you can not do in excel is drill down from a bar.
Count your blessings and try to convince your clients/users that "not the same" does not mean "worse" or "not good"
