Case 4

Working with charts and graphics. What a fantastic assignment. It was different from what we have been doing until now, in that there wasn't any usage of formulas or functions. It was exclusively working with charts and graphics. Ironically, though formatting and chart selection is typically the easier part of our assignment, this Case was more difficult than any of its predecessors. The difficulty came as a result of the less informative instructions. They told us what to do, but never how to do it. We therefore were forced to really explore Excel to locate the required tool. Though I did complete the assignment without error, I think I may have performed two of the steps in a manner other than that which was intended.

In Step 9, it instructs us to use the Format Chart Area Dialogue box to change the 3D rotation. I couldn't locate any such dialogue box on the ribbon, so I right-clicked on it and found the necessary settings (was right-clicking the intended way?). Further, in Step 15, I couldn't find the Axis Options on the ribbon, so I right-clicked and got to it that way. Any thoughts?
