how do you make the x axis the dependent variable and the Y axis the
independent variable so that the curves progress up instead of across?
 
You're going to need to give us some more info. What kind of chart are you
talking about? For instance, bars can go horizontal (Bar Chart) instead
of vertical (Column Chart.)

This doesn't sound too difficult, but we can't help much without some more
specifics. Why not give us a couple of short columns of numbers and a
better description of what you need the chart to look like.
 
Hi,

Try using the xy scatter rather than the Line chart. That way you can
specify the ranges for both x and y values. You will probably need to
generate a set of default values for the y axis.

Cheers

I just figured it out. I assumed the x values had to be the same for all
curves. By making the yvalues the same(independent) and vary the x
values(dependent) you get the curves to progress up instead of across.
