I'll be happy to send you the spreadsheet that shows the problems. Let
me know.
Every time I pay a utility bill, I add it to the spreadsheet. There are
columns that have the (monthly) cost and the monthly usage. I do this
for heat (cooking) gas, electricity, water, cable, etc. There are two
main charts (graphs?) that display the results, year over year.
There is a 12-point "series" identified for each year in the charts. I
color each series different for each year so the chart can be visually
evaluated. I have about 10 years of data. This all works fine with
Excel but OO is broken.
FWIW you can look at the "GAS USED" chart and see it minimal in the
summer (just cooking and hot water). During the winter it goes up
dramatically. And, I put comments in the chart as to when I install
new windows, etc which might affect the usage.
"ELECTRICITY USED" is different. To first order it is constant all year
around.

Please explain the type of graphs you are trying to get.
Also note that the graphing and charting component is being completely
rewritten and should be available in the 2.2 release ( I hope).
