Creating a combination graph

[Guest]

Hello, I want to create a stock plot that includes few line plots. I see that there is a combo with bar and line graphs, but I was wondering if it is possible to do this with the Stock graphs. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Nic,

Easiest way is to do it in Excel and paste in, or paste link. For a stock
chart, you need volume, high, low and close. PowerPoint tells me I need 5
columns but then doesn't accept them. I need to do more homework there.

Anyway, when you have created your chart in Excel, you can then select one
series, and change that series to a line chart.

series, and change that series to a line chart.

....by right-clicking on that series and choosing chart type. This
changes the chart style for that series alone, not for the entire chart.

Thanks, Echo. I thought of that after I went to bed.
