Define "Starting at zero". Is the first X value at zero? The first Y value?
In fact, what does your data look like? Did you know an XY chart and a line chart can both be formatted with lines connecting the data points? The XY chart provides more flexibility regarding the X axis. - Jon ------- Jon Peltier, Microsoft Excel MVP Tutorials and Custom Solutions Peltier Technical Services, Inc. - http://PeltierTech.com _______ "NorthStar" wrote in message ...

For the chart as a whole, look at the sub-types against XY chart under Chart
Type. For an individual data series, Format Data Series. -- David Biddulph "NorthStar" wrote in message ... Can you tell me how to connect the data points! That's what I want.

Or double click on the series, and on the Patterns tab, format the line.
If for whatever reason you still are not getting a line, it's because of blank cells between values, where the blanks are not being plotted. Go to Tools menu Options Chart, and choose Interpolate in the top section. - Jon ------- Jon Peltier, Microsoft Excel MVP Tutorials and Custom Solutions Peltier Technical Services, Inc. - http://PeltierTech.com _______ "David Biddulph" <groups [at] biddulph.org.uk wrote in message ...

Is the only way of not having the lines start on zero, is by clicking on that
line and choosing "no Line". Or is there another way in someother option? "Jon Peltier" wrote: Or double click on the series, and on the Patterns tab, format the line.

In an earlier message on this thread, Jon Peltier asked you what you meant
by lines starting on zero. X = 0 ? Y = 0 ? He asked what your data looked like. As far as I can see, you didn't bother replying. -- David Biddulph "NorthStar" wrote in message ...
