add source data to chart in excel
I can't get Excel to accept more than 19 data points for my X-axis in a
chart? Is this a limit? How do I add more data points? (As soon as I try to add the 20th point, all of the other points are lost.) |

add source data to chart in excel
Hi Susan
I have had this trouble in the past. Try.... Right click chart and select 'Source Data'. Delete any existing source data and close dialog box. Select the source data you require and copy it. Click on the chart and paste. Sandy "Susan" wrote in message ... I can't get Excel to accept more than 19 data points for my X-axis in a chart? Is this a limit? How do I add more data points?

The best way around this problem is to put your data into a contiguous
range, so you don't have to select a bunch of individual cells. - Jon ------- Jon Peltier, Microsoft Excel MVP Tutorials and Custom Solutions Peltier Technical Services, Inc. - http://PeltierTech.com _______ "Susan" wrote in message ...
