A big thanks to Don for submitting the first response to last week’s Friday Challenge.

Don submitted this dynamic chart where a user can select their chart filter’s using slicers.

2) Created Column Chart from the Data Table

3) Inserted Slicers from the Insert Menu after highlighting the data table.
