Put company A's data into columns A and B like this:
Company A
2152 162000
2424 169000
2691 178000
The top left cell in this region should be blank. Select this rectangular
data range, including the blank cell and "Company A" label at the top, and
use the chart wizard to create an XY chart of this data, using markers with
lines. Each additional company's data should be arranged the same way. It's
probably best to put Company B into columns C and D, Company C into columns
E and F, etc. To add another company's data to the chart, select and copy
the data, including the blank cell and "Company X" label at the top. Select
the chart, and use Paste Special from the Edit menu to add the data as a new
series, categories in first column, series name in first row. Repeat as
needed.
