5 To correct a mistake or to change how data is entered in the graph data dialog box,
do one of the following:
do one of the following:
•
If you accidentally enter graph data backward (that is, in rows instead of columns,
or vice versa), click the Transpose button
to switch the columns and rows of data.

•
To switch the x and y axes of a scatter graph, click the Switch X/Y button .
6 To adjust the cell column width to display more or fewer digits, click the Cell Style
button
button
and enter a new value in the Cell Style dialog box.
7 When you finish entering data in the work sheet, do one of the following:
•
Click the Apply button to keep the graph data dialog box open and apply the data to
the graph.
•
Click the close box to close the graph data dialog box and apply the data to the graph.
•
Click the Revert button to return data to its state when you last applied it to the
graph.
Entering labels and data for particular graph types
Labels can be words that describe columns of data, or they can be years, months, or days
for comparing data over time.
for comparing data over time.
Follow these additional guidelines for entering data for the selected graph type:
Column and stacked column graphs Enter numbers along the vertical (y) axis; enter
labels for the data along the horizontal (x) axis.

Bar and stacked bar graphs Enter numbers along the horizontal (x) axis; enter labels for
the data along the vertical (y) axis.
the data along the vertical (y) axis.
Column, stacked column, bar, and stacked bar graphs The height of the column or the
length of the bar corresponds to the amount being compared. For column or bar graphs,
you can combine positive and negative values; negative values appear as columns
extending below the horizontal axis. For stacked column graphs, numbers must be all
positive or all negative.

graph. You can combine positive and negative values in a line graph.
representing time along the x axis. Each column of data corresponds to one line in the line
graph. You can combine positive and negative values in a line graph.
Area graphs Plot at least two rows of data; values must be all positive or all negative.
Each row of data entered corresponds to a filled area on the area graph. Area graphs add
each column’s values to the previous column’s totals. Therefore, even if area graphs and
line graphs contain the same data, they appear substantially different.

Scatter graphs Enter y axis data in the first column and x axis in the second column.
A scatter graph differs from the other kinds of graphs, because both axes measure values;
there are no categories. If the first column contains labels, it is ignored, and the second
column produces values for the y coordinates.
