Placing an Axis Break on the Y axis
 

I am using Excel 2007 and I have data that I need to display on one
scatter plot. However, the initial value for one variable on the
graph dwarfs the rest of the data. I want to insert a break in the y-
axis for units. For example the y values from 5-20 are useless to my
data. So I want to remove those values from the y-axis. If I could
take them out it would show greater detail in the variation below 5.
I know this is possible in other programs, but I would prefer to do
all of my graphs in excel. Any help would be awesome. Thanks.
