Pie Chart - legend missing one category (edited to include spreadsheet)

- Oct 21, 2019Excel is getting confused by your merged cells. If possible, unmerge the cells, and link the label to a single cell.
If you don't want to unmerge, then change the label refs in the series formula for the chart.
Click on the pie chart, and in the formula bar, change the merged cell refs to a single cell ref:
-- instead of: $O$21:$S$21 put $O$21
-- instead of: $O$20:$S$20 put $O$20

Thank you. I did try un-merging them to see if that was the problem and it did not fix the issue, but I see now that the ones I un-merged were not the ones having the issue. Your suggestion has fixed the problem. I can't thank you enough!
