Graphing powers of ten

[newfie]

I want my graph to appear as 10^-1 and so on. Everytime I try to graph it, it
converts it to something else. Could someone help fix this problem.

Excel represents such numbers using this convention:

10^-1 = 0.1 = 1E-1
10^-3 = 0.001 = 1E-3
10^2 = 100 = 1E2

If you represent these numbers in a form Excel recognizes, do you have
better luck? If not, show us the numbers, and we'll take another swing at
it.

Take a look at a logarithmic scale. I don't know exactly what
you want but that might help.
