Graph only 3 descriptions from a list of 6 description

I have a table with several columns. They are as follow:

     Description

     Q1_2009

     Q1_2010

     Q2_2009

     Q2_2010

The Description column has 6 descriptions. They are as follow:

     Happy

     Sad

     Young

     Old

     Large

     Small

I just want to graph Happy, Young and Large and all of their data in Q1_2009, Q1_2010, Q2_2009 and Q2_2010

How can I do this?

Thanks.

some points:

1. i think it is better aprroch to do cross table on the data in the load script,

     see the script in the example

2. i think as an approch you should teach the users to select the items that they want and not use set analsys

i attched example two graph u think you should use the regulr

hi,

I hav attach a sample application. In the application, there are different categories name but i am using only bikes and clothing information for all quarters.

If you have multiple expression you can copy the set analysis code to all expressions.

Hello,

Thanks for the info. It is very helpful. However, I have several data points and I am trying to create a trend graph.

I like the graph to have bike sales for Q1_2009, Q1_2010, Q1_2011.

How can I graph this? Thanks
