    Need help to create a chart

    Hello, I need to make some charts for a work presentation but I have no knowledge about Excel and I'm finding the program extremely difficult to use.

    In my Excel file I have a column with a list of names and to each name is associated a row with a series of dates.

    I would need a scatter chart with the list of names in the y axis, while on the x axis there's a series of dates at which an event happens. I attached a rough handwritten picture of how I'd like the chart to appear. Is it even possible to achieve? Thank you in advance excel chart053.jpg

    This would have to be accomplished with three different series or as many series as you have people. We can do more if we had a sample file.

    Attach a sample workbook. Make sure there is just enough data to demonstrate your need. Include a BEFORE sheet and an AFTER sheet in the workbook if needed to show the process you're trying to complete or automate. Make sure your desired results are shown, mock them up manually if necessary.

    Remember to desensitize the data.

    Click on GO ADVANCED and then scroll down to Manage Attachments to open the upload window.
    One spreadsheet to rule them all. One spreadsheet to find them. One spreadsheet to bring them all and at corporate, bind them.

    A picture is worth a thousand words, but a sample spreadsheet is more likely to be worked on.
