Since a chart is always attached to a spreadsheet, you insert a chart into a Write document by first inserting the spreadsheet and then selecting or creating the chart to display (see Inserting a spreadsheet into a Write document for details on how to insert the spreadsheet).
Immediately after insertion the spreadsheet will be in edit mode. This means you can make changes to the spreadsheet rather than the document. If you drop out of edit mode (by clicking in another part of the document, for example), double-click on the spreadsheet again to make it active.
The next step depends on whether you're creating a new chart or displaying an existing chart, as follows:
Creating a new chart
Select the figures you want to chart (or type them in if it's a new spreadsheet). Select As New View from the Insert / Chart menu. Follow the steps in the chart wizard to create the appearance you want. See Chart for more details on how to create charts.
Displaying an existing chart
Once a spreadsheet has been inserted, you can choose which view you'd like to show in the document. Select Sheet from the View menu to display the normal spreadsheet grid. Select Chart from the View menu to view the chart. If there is more than one chart, you will be prompted to make a selection.
