    I tried this in Excel 2010 and it worked as you want: The negative values are below x-axis and the others stacked above.

    @PaulSmith Sorry, I didn't read your question exactly and I didn't check my try exactly. So after analyzing and playing around with some numbers I found out, that an stacked area chart doesn't work for you. When you switch to a stacked line chart you better see what happens. For your case I found out, that your column for Division C must be the first; then you get what you want, but only as line diagram. But this solution does only work for your case, not generally. Especially if another division makes losses, it doesn't work.
