joining data points on graph
I am merging two graphs and one has 23 data points, the other has 9. The
category axis will have 23 data points but the 9 points are spread out, i.e. they may be at points 1, 3, 7, 15 etc of the 23-point scale. At the moment the graph will only join points that are beside each other; how do I get them to connect to the points that have spaces between them? |

Forgive me if I have misread your intention but if you place the second set immediately following the first and then sort on the x-xalues, won't you get what you want? James Silverton. |

joining data points on graph
In other words, you have blank cells in the data? By default Excel ignores
these blanks, leaving a gap in the chart. You can tell Excel to draw a line across the gap. Select the chart, go to Options on the Tools menu, and on the Chart tab, where it asks how you want to deal with blank cells, choose Interpolate. - Jon ------- Jon Peltier, Microsoft Excel MVP Peltier Technical Services Tutorials and Custom Solutions http://PeltierTech.com/ _______ "minihana" wrote in message ...
