One pie chart represents a single data set, and each wedge is one data point value in
that set (the rst data point from each data series). If the data series are in rows, only
the rst column is used in creating the chart; if the data series is in columns, only the
rst row is used in creating the chart. You can any chart data set by moving it to the
rst row or column of the table.
To adjust the look of an individual pie wedge, you must rst select the pie chart, and
then select the wedges you want to change.

To select nonadjacent wedges, hold down the Command key as you select each wedge. m
To select a continuous range of wedges, select the rst wedge, and then hold down m
