Task 2:  Add the chart to the report

In this task, use the palette to add a chart element, and select a chart type.

1	Choose Palette, then drag the chart element to the blank report design. The chart builder appears, as shown in Figure 14-2.

The lower part of the Select Chart Type page displays the different types of charts that you can create. Some chart types include several subtypes, giving you a wide range of available types. Choosing a chart type on Select Chart Type displays the available subtypes for that type of chart. By default, these subtypes create two-dimensional charts.

2	In the Select Chart Type list, select Pie. The chart builder shows a symbol of a pie chart in the Subtype area, as shown in Figure 14-3. Pie charts have only one subtype, so you see only one option in the Subtype area.
