Default How do you make a chart with right angles only?

The error bar technique on my website works just fine in Excel 2007...almost
fine.

The simple mechanism I remember for Excel 2007 is this. When specifying
custom ranges, always also specify that you want both 'both' plus and minus
error bars. Then, in the custom range dialog box set the one that you don't
want to zero.

So, suppose you have the horizontal error bar values in C2:C5 (and C6 is
empty). Then, to create only plus error bars for the horizontal error bars,
in the error bar dialog box specify 'both' and in the custom range dialog
box, for the plus values select the range C2:C6 and in the minus values box
enter 0.
