Hi

This is my first post here, so I am anxious to get this question figured out.

I have imported 2 x-y files into excel. The first is the coordinates of a set of about 50 points on an image. The second is the coordinates of the same points, but at different location (i.e. they have all moved a little with respect to their original position).

I would like to plot the two sets, but have each before and after point be connected by a line (to help visualize where each point moved). This means that each set of coordinates must be its own series within the plot.

My question is: Is there a simple way/shortcut to achieve this? Now I manually select each set, and it takes a long time to get a set of 50 points.

Hope I didn't confuse you by my question.

Is there a shortcut key for strikethrough?
Ctrl+S is used for Save. Ctrl+5 is used for Strikethrough. Why Ctrl+5? When you use hashmarks to count |||| is 4, strike through to mean 5.
