Default Line Chart Help

Make an XY chart. Line charts do not recognize numerical values.

Default Line Chart Help

Hi Jon, I apreciate your time. I got it to work though. I actually had to set
up my data into rows not cloumns.

What I did was select all of the Data including headings. Then delete the
first row which would be Tube(Lbs/ft) heading from the Series and then select
the first row Tube(Lbs/ft) data as my X values. Worked perfectly.


Tube (Lbs/ft 0.142 0.175 0.211
Furnace load (Lbs/hr) 218.8 269.5 284.0
( tube +.5" sled) 1267.92 1318.57 1201.92
( tube + .375" sled) 808.66 859.31 800.07
