I wonder how to make a single line graph using Excel?

Like this one!

Your First Step

• Enter your Data on an Excel Spread Sheet, as on the next slide.

Your Next step

I have found that using “General” values for your data facilitates the drawing of the graph, it also allows you to give your values a name label i.e. “sec.”

And Your Next Step

• Select the columns you want to represent in a graph

• In the Excel application select (left click) the graph icon

• You will see the (Window) pane, titled Chart Wizard, pop-up like the one in the next slide

The left mouse button selects, the right mouse button gives you a menu

Select the “Chart type and Chart sub-type” and select Next

This will give you an idea what the graph is going to look like, select Next

Time to enter your Chart title and X and Y axis labels, as you like. Also, take some time to check out the thumbnails, Axes, Gridlines, Legend, Data Labels, and Data Table

Just about done. If you would like your chart to display on a full page then select “As new sheet:”. If you want your chart embedded in your spreadsheet then select “As object in:” Now select Finish

Or if you had selected “As new sheet:”

See the next slide☺

Happy Graphing!
