Hi Jon,
I did do that, but the data is spread over almost 20 columns it's creating a chart that can't be read. -- DMM "Jon Peltier" wrote: Did you try selecting the data and running the chart wizard? - Jon ------- Jon Peltier, Microsoft Excel MVP Tutorials and Custom Solutions Peltier Technical Services, Inc. - http://PeltierTech.com _______ "soconfused" wrote in message ...

Are there 20 distinct series of data, or can you consolidate it efficiently
and correctly into fewer columns? Remember, the purpose of a chart isn't to include every data point you have, but to clearly convey the information inherent in the data. - Jon ------- Jon Peltier, Microsoft Excel MVP Tutorials and Custom Solutions Peltier Technical Services, Inc. - http://PeltierTech.com _______ "soconfused" wrote in message ...
