I can't find the menus or toolbar buttons you mention.
Be sure that Microsoft Graph is active if the text mentions that this menu or toolbar button is part of that application. If you're in PowerPoint, the Graph options won't display. To activate Microsoft Graph, double-click your chart and it appears within PowerPoint.
My datasheet numbers display in exponential formatting.
You need to apply a formatting category other than the default General formatting if your numbers exceed 11 characters. To do so, choose Format, Number from within Microsoft Graph and change to a Category such as Number or Currency.
I can't see the Add Trendline option from the Chart menu.
You can only create a trendline with unstacked area, bar, column, line, stock, XY (scatter), and bubble charts that don't have a 3D effect. Otherwise, this menu option won't be available.
My chart has empty spaces where there should be a data series.
If you don't need one of the existing datasheet rows or columns, you need to remove it entirely from the datasheet, not just the contents. Otherwise, it can display as an empty space on your chart and disrupt formatting. If a series you entered is missing, verify that none of your columns or rows is hidden. To include a hidden row/column, choose Data, Include Row/Col from within Microsoft Graph.
