    Overlaying a line plot on top of a column chart

    I have a column chart that is looks somewhat like a normal distribution. I want to emphasize this by overlaying a line that shows a true normal distribution. I have the series I need I just don't know how to put a line overtop of the columns. Thanks for any help!

    Hi,

    To plot a normal distribution you can determine the probability of a number occuring in your distribution using the =NORMDIST function. However, You shouldn't really plot that curve unles you can show that you do have a normal distribution. You may want to Google "anderson-darling test"
