Thanks for your help. I'm sorry, but I don't have the option to change the
markers. under the format trendline dialog box, I do see the patterns tab.
however, there is no mention of any markers. in fact, I don't see anything
under the Type and Options tab either. this happens whether I right click by
the point or do to the Format menu. When I click the trendline and go to the
Format menu, I see only Selected Trendline and Sheet options. Is there
anything else to do?

You could format a single data point to have a large marker

Greetings, everyone. Is there any way to have Excel draw a circle around
a point on a scatterplot? I ask because I have two points with the same X
and Y values, which is causing one of the points to hide under another.
Thank you for your help.
