    Question Different error bars for different values within a series

    I'm working with six sets of data - two treatments and three timepoints. I made a bar graph of the means [two series, one for each of the treatments] and I need to add error bars for each separate bar, which I had already calculated on another sheet. I know how to change the custom value for the whole series but I can't figure out how to change the custom error for separate data points within this series. Hope this makes sense ... help please?

    Hi,

    If I understand correctly, you have a range of cells you want to use as error values? If so simply enter the range address into the custom value dialog box.
    Rule 1: Never merge cells
    Rule 2: See rule 1
