How to display graph if only mean, SD & median values available?
 

I have a series of discrete items of data comprising mean, SD and median
values (no range or actual data series available).

I am trying to display each discrete data point graphically (mean, SD and
median) but am struggling to do this. I am using latest version of Excel but
can also access SPSS. If anyone can help it would be very much appreciated.

How to display graph if only mean, SD & median values availabl
 

Thanks Andy. My problem is that I don't have a normally-distributed data
series for example, just mean values, SD and median values. I need to plot
the mean with SD bars, and a median value within it.

Quite simple if I only had the data set, but my research method can only
given me those three values (mean, SD and median). Any other ideas?
