Chart type help

I have data similar to this:

part #
Type
Cost

101
m1
297.36

102
m1
346.80

103
m2
1,517.16

104

109
m3
472.82

110
m3
557.14

557.15

What I am trying to construct is a "Stacked" type chart that would have a single occurance of the type (m1,m2,m3) along the x axis and a tick mark representing the "cost" values stacked along the y axis.
I have tried the scatter chart type but I get multiple
occurances of the "type" along the x axis and individual cost values as tick marks in the body of the chart.
I must be having a new year brain cramp!!
What type of chart do I need?
Thanks
Irie!

We can do it by "cheating" a little.
First, insert a column between column B and C.
Put this formula in C2 and fill down as needed:
=VALUE(RIGHT(B2,LEN(B2)-1))
Next, select C1:D100 (or however far is needed) and create a line chart.
Format the series to have no line plotted, and change the markers as desired (in your example, a X).
Next, right click on chart, chart options, axes tab, and change the x axis to time-scale.
Finally, format the x-axis with a custom number format of:
"m"#

Manually editing the Windows registry

Manually editing the Windows registry to remove invalid MACHINE_CHECK_EXCEPTION keys is not recommended unless you are PC service professional. Incorrectly editing your registry can stop your PC from functioning and create irreversible damage to your operating system. In fact, one misplaced comma can prevent your PC from booting entirely!

Caution: Unless you an advanced PC user, we DO NOT recommend editing the Windows registry manually. Using Registry Editor incorrectly can cause serious problems that may require you to reinstall Windows. We do not guarantee that problems resulting from the incorrect use of Registry Editor can be solved. Use Registry Editor at your own risk.

To manually repair your Windows registry, first you need to create a backup by exporting a portion of the registry related to MACHINE_CHECK_EXCEPTION (eg. Windows Operating System):

Click the Start button.
Type "command" in the search box... DO NOT hit ENTER yet!
While holding CTRL-Shift on your keyboard, hit ENTER.
You will be prompted with a permission dialog box.
Click Yes.
A black box will open with a blinking cursor.
Type "regedit" and hit ENTER.
In the Registry Editor, select the Error 0x9C-related key (eg. Windows Operating System) you want to back up.
From the File menu, choose Export.
In the Save In list, select the folder where you want to save the Windows Operating System backup key.
In the File Name box, type a name for your backup file, such as "Windows Operating System Backup".
In the Export Range box, be sure that "Selected branch" is selected.
Click Save.
The file is then saved with a .reg file extension.
You now have a backup of your MACHINE_CHECK_EXCEPTION-related registry entry.
