stock plots
I am trying to do box and whisker types of plots. The only way to do this,
as I can see, is to use what Excel calls "stock plots". 1. Is there another way to get box and whisker plots from Excel? 2. When I have the plots in one file and the source data in another, and the source data file is not open, the plots will get messed up - x scale redrawn. Is there any way around that? 3. Is there any way to have the up-down bars such that I can have one or more sets of bars a different color from the rest of the bars? TIA. |

Thanks, Pete.
I am evidently misusing my terms... what I have done is to plot mean, mean + 2 SD, and mean - 2 SD to get a graphical representation of the data set, and trend that over time.
