I recommend that you use an XY (Scatter) chart type for both data series
(where each data series contains it own XY pairs on the worksheet). This way
you will have maximum control over the placement of the points. For each XY
series on the chart, you can format the series pattern to show markers only,
lines only, both markers and lines, or neither. For subsequent questions,
consider posting in the microsoft.public.excel.charting newsgroup.
