    On my practice worksheet I have a sine function. In column 5 degrees of arc from 1 to 359, in col 6 the sine function.

    (1) First I make a graph by hand INSERT > Scatter > select the smooth line option. This then draws a nice sine wave on my worksheet. This is what I want, but I need to use vba to do the same thing.

    Welcome to the forum

    Please attach a sample workbook (not a picture or pasted copy). 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.
