Default Formatting a line on one data-series

I have a simple line graph that has 6 data points. 3 of
those points are based off actual numbers and the other 3
are projected numbers.

I would like my one line to be solid where the numbers are
factual and dotted where the numbers are projected. When I
go to "Format Data Series" and change the style of the
line, it changes the entire line. How can I just change
particular segments so that half of my line is solid and
the other half is dotted?

Thanks!

You have to select the series itself. Where the projected numbers begin,
select the line, then click again to just highlight that portion to change
the format of the line. You will have to do this for each projected series
point. Hope this helps.
