I am trying to replicate some graphs from a financial reporting packege in
Excel. I plot the risk & return for all of the funds in a fund universe into
a scatter (xy) graph. I now need to add lines that would indicate the median
of buth my x & y data. This is a very common investment graph - can this be
done in Excel?

To add a horizontal line to a chart see any of these

I'm not familiar with the graphs you mention. Could you give an
example, perhaps a URL, and let me me know if you really mean
the *median* as opposed to the mean or mode?
