Default How do I create a curved graph in excel?

I'm using MS Office 2003. I've created a simple x-y scatter plot graph. The
graph line connecting the data points is a straight line. I'd like a curved
line. I don't know that using the drawing tool bar will properly represent
the data so I was wondering if there's another way.

Hi,

Double click the line and on the Pattern tab check the Smooth Line checkbox.

Cheers
Andy
