Change the plot area size of a pie-of-pie or bar-of-pie chart

Applies to: Microsoft Office Excel 2003

Click a data series (data series: Related data points that are plotted in a chart. Each data series in a chart has a unique color or pattern and is represented in the chart legend. You can plot one or more data series in a chart. Pie charts have only one data series.) in the pie chart you want to change.
On the Format menu, click Selected Data Series, and then click the Options tab.
In the Size of second plot box, enter a value between 5 and 200 to specify the size of the second pie or bar as a percentage of the first pie chart. For example, 105 makes the second pie or bar 5 percent larger than the first.
