Exporting: Final notes
• Remember, you can change anything you export– Data from Access can be copy and pasted into
rows– Charts exported from Excel can be resized
![Page 46: Creating Graphs in Excel. Step Summary Input data Highlight data to be graphed Insert Chart Decide what type of graph to use Finish!](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032802/56649de55503460f94addac2/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Final Practice 1
• We want to make a pie chart of students’ favorite foods.
• Open “Student Food Preferences” database• Create a query to show only the data needed.• Export this data to Excel
![Page 47: Creating Graphs in Excel. Step Summary Input data Highlight data to be graphed Insert Chart Decide what type of graph to use Finish!](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032802/56649de55503460f94addac2/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
Final Practice 2
• The data here cannot be used to make a pie chart – we need numbers!
• A useful function is COUNTIF – this will count the number of cells that contain a certain data value.
• The syntax is fx=COUNTIF(range,value)• A real example: =COUNTIF(B2:B27,"Rice")
![Page 48: Creating Graphs in Excel. Step Summary Input data Highlight data to be graphed Insert Chart Decide what type of graph to use Finish!](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032802/56649de55503460f94addac2/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
Final Practice 3
• Create functions to total all the favorite foods. It should look like this:
• Use this data to create a pie chart
![Page 49: Creating Graphs in Excel. Step Summary Input data Highlight data to be graphed Insert Chart Decide what type of graph to use Finish!](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032802/56649de55503460f94addac2/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
Final Practice 4
• Create a pie chart out of the data, as you did in Basic Practice 2
• Copy and paste this chart into a Word document.
