Hi,
I have a have pair of (x,y) values in a big 2 columnrange and I have made a
scatter chart from,only part of this range.(say from last 20 values)
Values in x column are sorted when i made the chart ,but when i sort the
data from y values now,my scatter chart goes for a toss and sorting the data
completely disfigures the chart. (as there are new (x,y ) values now in the
range from which i made the range).
How can i sort the my data without affecting the scatter chart?

Thanks,
Piyush
 
Piyush -

In Excel 2003 and earlier versions, do not use the AZ or ZA icons on the
standard toolbar. Instead, select the two-column range, and choose Data |
Sort.

In Excel 2007, select the range, and choose Home | (Editing) Sort & Filter |
Custom Sort.
