y-axis versus x-axis charts

[bigesimm]

What I'm trying to do is have the numerical data in the y-axis charted versus
the data in the x-axis and there seems to be no way to do this because all of
the charts given just plots the data for both the x-axis and y-axis but not
against each other if you know what I mean and can help that would be
appreciated, thanks.

Put the X values in a column. Put the Y values in the next column to the
right. Put a label in the cell above the first Y value. Keep the cell above
the first X value blank. Select this data, including the top row with the
blank and the Y label, and start the chart wizard. The blank cell helps the
chart wizard parse the data range.
