constant value in a chart
Hello,
How can I display a constant value as a line in a chart? For example, let's assume that I track a variable x across time with n values. In the spreadsheet, I calculated the average of the n observations. I'd like to display this average value as a line in the chart so that it is easy to visually relate any point in the date serie to this average value. thanks in advance for any hint... |

You may have to format this added series so the markers don't show but
the lines do. Or perhaps seeing the technique explained differently may help: http://peltiertech.com/Excel/Charts/AddLine.html - Jon ------- Jon Peltier Peltier Technical Services, Inc. http://peltiertech.com/ Andy_jm wrote: I just tried this and there was no line ... do you have any other pointers?
