Sorry, I thought you needed an intro to charting.
You want to use column 3's data to change the colour of points plotted from column 2? That would take some fancy VBA ; may I suggest you post the question in the Excel.Programming newsgroup? It would help if you included some sample data (especially the values in the third column) But on Jon's site you will find how to make conditional charts - different coloured point for different value ranges best wishes -- Bernard V Liengme Microsoft Excel MVP http://people.stfx.ca/bliengme remove caps from email "aaron" wrote in message news  do you know the answer to my question? can i use a third data series to scale the color of points on a scatter plot? thanks for your time.

Hi,
You just need additional series and formula to control the values for those series based on original data and conditional test. See Jon's examples http://peltiertech.com/Excel/Charts/...nalChart1.html Cheers Andy aaron wrote: do you know the answer to my question? can i use a third data series to scale the color of points on a scatter plot? thanks for your time.
