Excel Bar Charts: grouped and stacked combined

Excel Bar Charts: grouped and stacked combined

Excel Bar Charts: grouped and stacked combined

(OP)
Hi all--

Does anyone know if/how one can create bar charts in Excel that are both grouped and stacked?  I have a series of products for which I want to show the cost structure in one stacked column (material/labor/overhead/etc), next to the market price in a separate column.

I can almost get there by working only in stacked mode as follows (I hope this works):
                    Product A       Product B      Product C
material           x               x              x
labor               x               x              x
overhead          x               x              x
market  price              x              x              x

The problem with this method is that a) it's a hassle to manipulate the data, and b) the cost/price colums for a given product are not grouped together and the graph is too spread out.

Any suggestions?
