Really need help!!

Hi,
I have to make this graph but I cant seem to do it on microsoft excel. If u take a look at the attached graph i want the "viscosity" on the y axis and the "CO" on the x axis. Each dot graphed represents different things which is show in the key. I have asked many computer people but they cant seem to do it. Plz any help would be appreciated.

Thx

Plot your data using a scatter chart. With only 4 series and 2 data points for each, it will be pretty simple. You might have to play with how you setup the data but it should not be difficult.

Without the formulas for the values you need I can't plot the chart but is this how you wanted the layout? Please open attachment...

Ok, here's what I came up with (keep in mind I'm only estimating the point positions.)

I just realized that in the previous post I forgot to put in the lables for the axis so here's the new one:

Thx for replying. I saw these graphs and thats what i exactly want. However it would be really helpful if someone gave me a detailed explanation on how to do it since i got to make an enormous amount of different graphs following the same concept.
Thanks

Hey-

I can either try and explain here in the forum (it would probably be a pretty long explaination) or I can send you the file with some notes attached to tell you how I came up with the settings. Your choice. I'm gonna leave my Yahoo Messenger on so when you come online look me up. It may show me unavailable but if you buzz me I will hear it and answer you. Yahoo ID is cantes903. If you don't have Yahoo messenger, send me an email from my profile.

Teach a man to fish...feed him for life.

Sag needs to figure it out:

Usually I would agree with you. However, I remember taking a course where I just COULD NOT figure something out. No matter how much I worked on it, looked it up or asked a classmate for help. Sometimes you just don't get it.

So the moral of my story is that I will help ONCE when I can and after that you should be able to figure out the rest for yourself. You may think this is wrong and I'm sorry for that but I have been there and done that so I can emphasize.
