This article explains how to add a chart in a Microsoft Word document.
Steps
Method 1 of 2: Insert a Chart into Word

Step 1. Open a Microsoft Word document
To do this, you can double-click on an existing Word file. Alternatively, open the program, then select the document from the section Recent.
If you're opening a new document, just start Word, then click Blank document.

Step 2. Click on the document where you want to insert the chart
The cursor will appear where you clicked; when you add the chart, it will be inserted right there.
For example, clicking below a paragraph of text will insert the graph at that point

Step 3. Click on the Insert tab
You'll see it at the top of the Word window, on the right of the tab Home.

Step 4. Click on Graph
You will see this item inside the tab insert, to the right of the header. The icon looks like several bars of different colors.

Step 5. Click on the format you want to assign to your chart
You will find them listed on the left side of the window that just opened.
- The most common formats are Line, Column And Cake.
- You can customize the chart format by clicking on one of the options at the top of the window dedicated to the chosen format.

Step 6. Click OK
This way, you will insert the chart into the document.
You will also see a small Excel window appear with the cells in which you will need to enter the data
Method 2 of 2: Add Data to the Chart

Step 1. Click on a cell in the Excel window
This way, you will select it and you can add data to it.
- The values in column "A" will be reported on the X axis of the chart.
- The values in row "1" belong to several lines or bars (for example, "B1" is one line, "C1" another, and so on).
- Numeric values that do not appear in column "A" or row "1" represent different data on the Y axis.
- You can change the data written in the Excel cells at any time and the changes will be immediately reflected in the graph.

Step 2. Write a number or name

Step 3. Press Enter
This way, you will enter the data in the cell and can move on to the next one.

Step 4. Repeat for all the data you need
Each time you enter data, the graph will change to display it.

Step 5. Click on the X in the upper right corner of the Excel window
This will close it and save the changes to the chart.
