How to create a drilldown from clicking on an area in a pie or bar chart to displaying the data in a table?

I have a dashboard that organizes my information nicely. I need to be able to click on an area in a pie chart or a bar chart and have that data presented in a table. I am currently able to drill into the raw data, but then I have to add search language to chart the data. This needs to be seamless for users.

Thank you for your help.

when click on edit in your dashboard you can able to edit your xml code
clock on edit source
after your search query in that code
add these lines

......................

note: give the link of http after you search the desired fields
and put ?q=$click.value$
at the end of http link.
see the drilldown documentation further.

Did you get a chance to look at the Splunk documentation for 'Drilldown'?
http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/6.2.4/Viz/PanelreferenceforSimplifiedXML#Drilldown_eleme...

It has an example for capturing the clicked value and using it in other panel.
