Default Scatterplots with different colors based on Type of Data

Is it possible to plot a scatterplot with different colors for 2 sets of data?

E.g Type of Agreement MRP Discount%

Limited 10 5%
UnLimited 20 10%

I want to show different colors for Limited & Unlimited.

Is it possible to plot scatterplots on both axis(Primary & Secondary)

Please let me know.

Thanks,

Satish

Default Scatterplots with different colors based on Type of Data

If I use this range to make a chart
Limited 10 5%
Unlimited 20 10%
I get one data series with two points.
It is possible to format each point separately (click a point on chart,
pause, click point again) to have give them different colours.

If I use a range like this
Type 10 20
Limited 5% blank
Unlimited blank 10%
I get two data series (so different colours); each data series has a single
point
best wishes

Default Scatterplots with different colors based on Type of Data

Hi Bernard,

I have 2000 odd rows of data with "limited" "unlimited". How do I show a
different color for both data sets(all data points of each type). Its
possible to show different color for data labels in Minitab, but excel does
not allow to select the labels Limited & Unlimited.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Satish
