Date Format + Graph
Hi
I have 40 Years of data (2 Columns) in the following format Column A Column B 1/Jan/1970 75.65 2/Jan/1970 75.70 to 31/Dec/2009 80.15 etc What i would like to create is a simple line graph, with the horizontal Axis being 1st Jan to 31st Dec (No Year Data) Then my vertical Axis would be based on the values in Column B Basically what i am looking for is to be able to compare each years data on the same graph. How do I set up the graph to only look at the Day/Month of the Date and ignore the year when setting up the graph. Sure I have done this before but cant get my head round it today !!! Many Thanks Chris |

=DATE(2000,MONTH(A1),DAY(A1)) will transfer all the data to an equivalent
date in an arbitrary year so that you can use that as the x axis data. Then put each year's data in a separate series on the plot. -- David Biddulph "Chris26" wrote in message ...
