How do I get a custom column to appear in the chart data selection?

[DarylBellows]

I have created a custom column in a Report.  This custom column is a merge of multiple columns, using sharecol=true.

I need to use this data in a chart.  How do I get this new column to appear in the below chart data selection?

In the below example, I created a new column labeled "Opportunity Value" ...yet it does not seem to appear.

@DarylBellows Charts cannot read text mode, so in order for a column to appear as a dropdown result for a chart axis, you would have to create a calculated custom field and be sure to associate that custom form with all relevant objects to pull in that value, and then use that field as a column in your report / chart.
