You could also use traight table chart, but you need to use inputsum or inputavg in your expressions.

Please refer to the Help.

Hope this helps,

Stefan

I left out an important piece of information. My users will need to input and modify text, which doesn't seem possible.

The help is a little misleading because it says:

Values of an input field can be changed in list box cells, table box cells and in table chart expression cells.

Text is not addressed or excluded specifically.

No, I don't think you can modify string inputfields in a table chart.

You could use a table box or list box, though.

And here I found a similar request and a possible workaround.

Regards,

Stefan

Yes, unfortunately that won't work for what I'm trying to do. Thanks for the repsonse, though.
