I have read a little about dummy series and I don't understand it
yet, but it seems to apply to an X-Y scatter rather than to my
situation. Is my wish a possibility?

That's okay, because "chart type" isn't something you're forced to
have all the same. It can be different for every series. You
simply
add that dummy series (which will look like another column series
at
first, but don't worry!) and then change it to an XY series.


Thanks. It did work. I don't know how yet, but I works. I'll keep
playing with it.
