    Learn how to create line charts in Microsoft Excel with this step-by-step tutorial for beginners. As full disclosure, I work at Microsoft as a full-time employee.
    Find out how to insert a recommended line graph. Also, learn how to insert a line chart directly and edit the horizontal and vertical axes.
    Use this chart type to show trends over time (years, months, and days) or categories.
    In this tutorial, I use Excel that comes with Office 365; however, this should also work with all previous versions of Excel, like Excel 2019, Excel 2016, Excel 2013, Excel 2010, Excel 2007, and Excel 2003.

    I have a graph following 5-6 teams.
    Each day each team wins, loses or sometimes ties
    so columns are Date, Team, Results - "w", "l", "t".
    How can I create a line graph with points to spot if a team is trending in one direction?
    Thanks

When i add the year, it just shows 52 weeks to deselect. I want to take a specific year out. What is an easy way to remove a year? I have to rt click and remove, then go back and retract it to put back as it was.

    Once a line graph is fully formed with all elements in place...suppose the X-axis (horizontal) went from 0 to 100%, as is normal as the smallest value is usually plotted at the origin, however, what if you wanted the X-axis values REVERSED so that the origin which originally was 0% would NOW be 100% with the numbers declining from left to right? It seems like this should be an easy option to create but is it?

    But I can’t show anything but 0 or 100% I don’t get it
    Why is there even an option for me to put in numbers if all it’s going to do is 0 or 100 mine as well just be a mfing toggle switch, useless

    Ok here is how to make a program to make microsoft graphs: 1st you make it as confusing and convoluted as possible, next you don't use common words like: x & y axis, or range & domain, or independent/dependent etc. Finally you have it not do what you want it to do despite doing everything right... Thank you for the video, it is still appreciated. It's not your fault micrsoft makes crap programs, not entirely anyways, or that they foist their nonsense down our throat and expect us to love it... Thank you still for the video. I couldn't get it to work but thank you.
