    How to draw a line chart in excel with discontinued (uneven) data on X-axis

    Dear All,

    I would like to know how I can make a line by a set of uneven gap data on a continuous X-axis, like

    Time Volume
    0 0
    5 10
    10 15
    20 30
    23 40
    30 50

    By excel, I just get recognize the time value as "label" , instead of a data on the time line.

    Please help offer advice.

    Thanks

    As per Kaper, but select the first option under X Y (Scatter) Chart, i.e. without Straight Lines, then add a Linear Trendline.
