Stacked chart

Hi,

 

I've got data in columns that looks like this coming from a list:

 

ProjectJanFebMar
Project ACompleteCompleteDue
Project BCompleteDueComplete
Project CCompleteLateDue

 

What sort of measure do I need to convert the nominal data into counts so that I can display in a stacked bar chart for each month of the year?

 

Any help is appreciated, I've got total mind blank on this!

I reccommend transpose the data to make a normalized table.  Many visuals will not take measures in an axis

Is that the only way, I'll have thousands of columns if I transpose the table?
