In addition to making an XY chart instead of a line chart (you can make
Excel connect the points), you can remove the column label above the X axis,
but keep the label(s) above the Y value column(s). Excel will recognize that
the values in the first column are different, and use them as category
labels.

How do I get the x-axis to be a range of "values" instead of "categories"?
I am trying to do a line chart with values over a % range, but I do not
have
values evenly spaced over the entire range (The chart is asymptotic and I
only need to see values from 0 to 40 or so) e.g.:
X Y
0.5% 28.8%
1% 44.8%
2% 62.2%
5% 80.9%
10% 89.9%
15% 93.4%
20% 95.3%
35% 97.7%

I get the X axis evenly spaced in 8 categories. Seems like older
versions
of Excel (I am using Office XP/2002) allowed me to set the range and
divisions within the range. How do I handle this now?

Thanks for your help.
