Strut10 Posted September 29, 2010 Report Share Posted September 29, 2010 Anyone know if there's a part of Microsoft Office or Works or Excel that is for plotting graphs?? Or maybe some other program or accessory?? I'm hitting dead ends. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strut10 Posted September 29, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 29, 2010 O.K. How do I get the graph format for the page. It comes up in spreadsheet format. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clrj3514 Posted September 29, 2010 Report Share Posted September 29, 2010 O.K. How do I get the graph format for the page. It comes up in spreadsheet format. Should be a "create" button or something similar that will bring up options & you can find different graphs there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbHunterNY Posted September 29, 2010 Report Share Posted September 29, 2010 (edited) not sure what version of Office /Excel you have but here's a link for an older version I found quickly to give you an idea.... http://www.internet4classrooms.com/excel_create_chart.htm ....if you open Excel what version (year) does it say? it can also look a little different depending on what operating system you've got; Windows 2000, XP, Vista, etc. maybe you can just take this info and go with it. help's here if you need it.

Tominator Posted September 29, 2010 Report Share Posted September 29, 2010 Put your data in your spreadsheet, highlight what you want to graph and up on your menu, you should see a tiny bar graph. Click on it and work your way through the wizard. Or send it to me and I'll get to it tomorrow morning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strut10 Posted September 29, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 29, 2010 I have Office Excel 2007. I found where I can insert a graph into a document. I'm just looking for an application where I can plot a good old "X-Y" axis graph. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dbHunterNY Posted September 29, 2010 Report Share Posted September 29, 2010 you probably want "scatter" then "area" will also work but it will be shaded underneath Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
