yay. I got it to work... somehow. Unfortunately I now realize it's not
going to do exactly what I want. If I have a column chart with 3 sets
of data in each column, can I get the picker to let me pick of those
3?

Like, say I have year 2000 to 2010 and each year I have the sale
figures of Bill, Joe and Sally. I want the picker to let me pick if I
show all 3 people, or just 2 or 1, not whether I show all 10 years or
just some of them.

Is there a relatively easy way to do this?
