how do I create a line graph from a common origin?
How do I have create a line graph with 3 lines having a common point of
reference or origin? I see financial charts showing investments, for example, having $10,000 as a point of origin in order to show change in investment value over time. I want to do something like that with other type of data. |

Normalize your data so all three series pass through the first point. If
series A starts at 9000, for example, and you want it to pass through 10000, multiply each Y value by 10000/9000. - Jon ------- Jon Peltier, Microsoft Excel MVP Peltier Technical Services Tutorials and Custom Solutions http://PeltierTech.com/ _______ "Ray" wrote in message ...
