Display count of data points in a scatter graph
I've been banging my head on what must be a simple problem (yet one
that I apparently can't solve). How can I display a count of the number of data points actually plotted on an XY graph? I have a range of, let's say, 100 cells. 70 of these cells contain a number and 30 contain N/A (and therefore aren't plotted). I'd like to display "n=70" somewhere on my chart. Can anyone help? Thanks... |

Display count of data points in a scatter graph
Hi,
Put this formula in a cell, adjust range to suit. Assumes N/A is on the X values only. ="n=" & COUNT(A1:A20) To display the contents of the cell with the formula use a textbox or chart text item such ax chart title or axis titles. See here how to link textboxes to cells. http://www.andypope.info/tips/tip001.htm Cheers Andy npa100 wrote: I've been banging my head on what must be a simple problem (yet one that I apparently can't solve).
