You mean as four different series. Format them the same way (same color

A series is a single set of data defined by a set of formatting
options.
If
you have over 32k points, you can make a series with the first 32k
points,
then add as many as necessary blocks of 32k more points as new series,
and
format them all to look like the first.
Of course, if you have over 32k points, nobody can probably read the
chart.

I am plotting 24 hour rolling data that gets updated every minute.
Data
comes from an Excel Query data base and is graphed in four
different
charts
(separate worksheets). Refresh is enabled when opening file but
before
the
actual charts update a warning message comes on several times, which
says:
"The maximum number of data points you can use in a data series for
a
2-D
chart is 32,000. If you want to use more than 32,000 data points,
you
must
create two or more series" I don't really know what all this
exactly
means
and what "two or more series" it is talking about. Can someone
please
help?
Thanks!
