Hi,

Step charts are not built in to excel but you can fake them.
See here, includes links to alternative sites and methods.

Hi! I have a normal line chart. The data is in a matrix. My data is on an
annual basis. I want the chart to show discreet jumps in the line but xl
somehow manages to make them not show a vertical jump but it is a gradually
shift. this is regardless of which chart i choose. how can i get the shifts
in the line to be a straight verical shift? thanks!
