    Trendline covering up error bars

    Hello--

    How can I change the order of the trendline and data set? My trendline is covering up my error bars... I want them on top. Any way to do this?

    Thanks,
    Jennifer

    A chart has certain layers, and the orcer of the layers cannot be
    changed, only the order of objects within a layer.

    Trendlines go on top of almost anything in the chart. You could double
    click the trendline and choose a thinner line style, you can double
    click on the error bars, and choose a more conspicuous style.

    You could also use the coefficients to plot your own trendline as an XY
    Scatter series, and it should be plotted in a layer beneath the error bars.

    Thanks for your help! Great idea to just plot it as a new data set. However, I had some problems... see post http://www.excelforum.com/showthread.php?t=392368
