Hashed pattern in bargraphs - MS excel
I am drawing graphs for a paper that supports only black and white graphs. I need to show more than 3 histograms and want to have different patterns on them like hash, dotted, double hashed etc instead of different colors in the legend.
I am using MS Excel 2007.
I tried but dont find a way except for the option available in design tab that I find when I double click on the chart area( These are shades of grey color and I want patterns like hashing, dots etc).
Thanks in advance,

use the shades of gray style and manually change each bar you want to have a pattern:
- righ-click on the bar
- choose Format data series
- choose Fill in the left column of the dialog box
- choose Pattern fill in the right column
