    [SOLVED] How to use a line chart to show selected column?

    Hello Everyone,

    I am new in chart. I have attached a file here. I need to use a line chart to show Growth Performance on column E, I and M for all products. Is it possible since the columns are apart?

    I would very much appropriate any suggestions.

    Thanks.

    See attached. Just select the columns using the Control and mouse button to select separated cells

    Crooza,

    Thanks for the reply. Sorry maybe I didn't make my question clearer. I need to have 3 things on the chart. The year, the performance, and the product names. Since the yearly performances are in column E, I and M. How can i select the data as they are apart in the table?

    Thanks again for the help.

    Crooza,

    I am new to the chart thing. This is my first chart. Therefore i may be asking very stupid question. I need the chart to show the year 2016, 2017 and 2018 in the label (X) . And 6 products (6 lines) with product names (you only have 3 lines now for the years, and the products are in the X now), and the performances on Y (it is correct in the chair you provided). I hope I am making it clearer now.

    Thanks again for the help.

    Using Crooza's example

    Use Switch Row/Column to get products as series. The Select Data to update range used for horizontal axis.
