Thanks Tushar,

However, when I try to change the values for the error bars it gives me the
error bars for the entire data set and not the individual data point. It
does not allow me to put the custom numbers for the individual data point.
How can I do this? Or is there anyway that the SD can represent the true SD
from the data analysis? Any help you can give in this matter will be greatly
appreciated.

Set the 'Error amount' option to 'Custom' and specify the range in your

I have means of values that are in a line chart. I want to add error bars,
however when I add the error bars with SD=1 they all look the same. I know
the SD for each mean is not the same. I want to know how to get the error
bars to represent the SD of the data set (the set from which the mean was
derived) and not all look the same.
