Your other tutorial didn't work for me (I don't know if its because I have Excel 2010, or if I was just doing it wrong), but this tutorial not only got me on the right track, but afterwards I understood it enough to plot my 20 other data points and still make it look pretty.

My own habit has typically been to use an XY chart and basically draw everything with lines created by making auxiliary data series to the spreadsheet. I can remember making plots with old fashioned pen plotters where I had to calculate the coordinates of every point in Fortran, so using Excel as a glorified etch-a-sketch comes naturally to me...

I think the error bar functionality in Excel 2007 is a defect, masquerading as a feature.

If it were not for the kind souls, like Jon here, we’d all be up the creek without a visible means of propulsion.
