Excel offers a variety of chart styles for you to use. This tutorial will teach you how to change the style of the chart you are using in Excel.

Use the cursor to click on a blank area on your chart. Make sure to click on a blank area in the chart. The border around the entire chart will become highlighted. Once you see the border appear around the chart, then you know it is ready to be changed.
