It's easy once your data is in: Insert, chart, chose scatter

Give us your titles and figures and I'll put it into a graph

That looks spot on mate, though i need to distinguish what dot is what. Ie Re 1 blue R2 is red etc? Sry being a pain

Got my scanner to work, just uploading cop of thing i need now.


Right i know im taking the pissssss now. But I need the table then to have to lines one horizontal and the other verticl. With top right corner saying Key Strengths, Top left, Superfluous Strengths bottom left Xone of Irrelevance and bottom right Key Weaknesses.


I know im taking the piss but im desperate has i got old shitty comp that cant do fook all. and the operater isnt much better

Obviously photobucket re sized it but you get the idea

Edit - hopefully better pic
