Scatter Plot Point Labels
Hello, I would like to make a scatterplot with X and Y parings and a name for
each of the points that it creates. I have set up the data as such: X Y Label 12 34 Fall 13 37 Spring 5 15 Summer 6 15 Late Summer 10 50 Winter 12 50 Equinox I can manually select each one and force the name to each point that is created by the paring. How can I make it so that the "label" in each row only applies to that point for the scatter plot without manually making 6 series in this example? Thanks |

Thanks My students run into this problem so often, I wrote an Excel add-in that does it automatically. You can download the add-in from my website at http://faculty.fuqua.duke.edu/~kamakura/bio/index.htm . Simply highlight the range you wan to plot (making sure that the first column contains the labels, the second and third columns contain the XY coordinates) and use Tools/Scatter Plot with Labels, and you'll get the chart you want. |
