    graphing limitations

    I run into a problem every month when I try to produce my 2d graph in Excel. I have over 32,000 entries and therefore it can't plot everything. I have to plot all the values so I can't skip around. Is there a way to override the limits of Excel to plot more, or do I have to buy Tecplot/Matlab to plot more values?

    You can't override it, at least not in Excel 2002. It's a limit of the software.

    Why do you need to plot 32,000 values? Unless you're doing a large data-collection experiment, I suspect that you don't actually need all that data.
    I use VB 6, VB.Net 2003 and Office 2010



    Code:
    Excel Graphing | Excel Timer | Excel Tips and Tricks | Add controls in Office | Data tables in Excel | Gaussian random number distribution (VB6/VBA,VB.Net) | Coordinates, Vectors and 3D volumes

    we print huge charts with daily values from 1990 to the present. I don't think they need the resolution, but thats what they want.
