Solution? Select the y range, make a new chart, choose any chatter plot, select a point, change the formula on the top of the screen which was something like: =SERIES(,,y-range,1) to =SERIES(,x-range,y-range,1), enter, ready. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ben Verwer Lorentzweg 1 tel +31(15)783247 Pattern Recognition Group 2628 CJ Delft fax +31(15)626740 Faculty of Applied Physics The Netherlands Delft University of Technology
