First time trying to create a chart in Numbers and I'm lost

[Nitromaster]

Hi
Got Numbers 08 installed, never really used it as didn't have a need. Created a spreadsheet the last day with some survey results for a project and saved it.

My spreadsheet looks like:
(A1-Grey) - Sex - Age - Multiple choice question
(Blank-Grey) - Male - 30 - Answer1
(Blank-Grey) - Female - 25 -Answer2

etc
with a blank column on the left that's grey and the top heading thing being grey .
Bit lost though with turning say the "Multiple choice question" column into a pie-chart (or any sort of chart tbh)
I choose the header and all the 30 or so replies in that column and select chart -> pie-chart.
It presents me with a pie-chart "Chart1" with just blue - 100% and the legend stating : blue - Untitled 1.
How would I go about making the chart with the data i need? (i know i'm selecting it wrong or have it laid out wrong or something) or editing a chart manually.

Thanks

While I can't tell you specifically how to what you want to do with charts, I will suggest you open the Numbers "Help" menu (an overlooked resource in all Apple programs and many others as well) and take a look there. One of the main selections is "Adding Charts, Graphics and Other Objects". Under that are several chart topics, such as "About Charts", "Adding Charts" etc.

I have no idea what you're trying to describe... post a screenshot.

Figured out how to do this. Didn't select anything in created a chart. Then manually counted the number of results for each answer and entered it in.

Thanks
