title: Chart containing date comparisons using Excel 2013
body: <p>I am trying to compare data from November 2017 to November 2018, December 2017 to December 2017 to December 2018 and January 2018 to January 2019 for 5 classes in the same </p>
  
  <p>Column A is titled Classes and has the 5 different classes listed from rows 2-6</p>
  
  <p>Column B has November 2017 and the rows contain percentages</p>
  
  <p>Column C is titled December 2017</p>
  
  <p>Column D is titled January 2018</p>
  
  <p>Column E is titled November 2018</p>
  
  <p>Column F is titled December 2018</p>
  
  <p>and Column G is titled January 2019</p>
  
  <p>I wanted to create a bar chart that would contain have each class and show the data such as November 2017 and November 2018 next to each other.  </p>
  
  <p>I tried to change the Horizonal Axis but it doesn't let me change the order in which the dates appear on the chart.  </p>
  
  <p>The only way that I have been able to get the desired results so far is to use a pivot chart.  </p>
