    Graphing days between events

    I need to create a graph of events over time, with "days between events" calculated. I think I've seen this done in a line graph.

    My knowledge of Excel is very limited, so I am pretty much starting from scratch. Thanks!

    Enter your data in a format similar to this. (attached)

    Make sure you have a column that actually demonstrates the Days Between. I used a simple:
    Code:
    C4    =B4-B3
    ...copied down in the C column to get the days, format that column as General.

    Now highlight the whole chart, and click on the Chart icon. Select Bar graph.

    Thank you. I really only need two columns, after all.
