Stacked graphs
In bar and column graphs, you can choose to stack the bars and columns. In
stacked graphs, each category is represented as one bar or column instead of as

Using graphs in reports
Graphs in reports are
dynamic
Graphs in reports are tied directly to the data that is in the report. As the data
changes, the graph is automatically updated to reflect the new values.
Two techniques
You can use graphs in reports in two ways:
• By including a graph as a control in a report
The graph enhances the display of information in a report, such as a tabular
or freeform report. This technique is described in “Placing a graph in a
report” next.
• By using the Graph presentation style
The entire report is a graph. The underlying data is not visible. This
technique is described in “Using the Graph presentation style” on page
420.
