    This one has me scratching the noggin..

    Love mucking around with Excel & trying to learn some of the fancier aspects :P

    Messing with an old spreadsheet, I'm playing with inserting graphs and it's all grand except....

    I have two columns, Duration & Pace, which seems to get Excel all in a tizz.

    I assume it's to do with how Excel reads time & dates, but I just can't figure it out!

    All other graphs are easily created; select 2 columns, Insert, and format away.

    I've included two, Avg KMS & Steps, to demonstrate and also a third to show what Excel produces using the same method for either Duration or Pace.

    Both column's data are formatted as Custom, hh:mm; I’ve tried fiddling about with various other formats with no joy.

    Any ideas?

    Virtual lockdown creamy buns on offer :p:p

    Howdy,

    Its not clear what you want to do, but i presumed it was to fix the duration chart.

    Right click on the chart, and go to select data.
    Hit edit, and manually select the data you want
    - Series Name - Select the cell with "Duration" in it.
    - Series Values - Select the cells with the various duration values
    Hit ok. Now select your Horizontal Category Values by selecting the edit button on the right, and select your "Date" values.
