                    A Range Column chart is useful in comparing many series of data side by side. WIth this chart, changing the 3D setting has a distinctyly different effect.
In this example, we compare the spending between departments on a year to year basis:

Instructions
- Begin by creating a new list that is appropriate for the chart type.
 - Create a list called Deparmental Spending.
 - Change the Title column to Year.
 - Add currency columns for Sales, Marketing, Accounting, Development, Customer Support and Administration.
 - Add test data as shown:
 

- Create a new page Departental Spending Chart.
 - Add a Smart Chart web part as described in the Column Chart section.
 - Use a large size of 500px height and 700px width.
 - Choose the Range Column Chart type as shown.
 - Include each of the departments as a series in the chart.
 

- Your chart output will look similar to above.
 - Try turning on the 3D setting for a dramatically different chart.
 

Summary
Range Column is a good choice when examining the values for many fields in a list over time. Making use of the 3D settings produces a dramatically different chart.
