I have a set of 3,000 data points. The data is in one second intervals, however I am interested in seeing what the data looks like in a graph if I only had a point every minute. I have the following set up.

A B C
TIME X Y

What I want to do is to leave the first cell unhidden, and then hide the next 59. And then repeat this so I narrow the data down to one second each. I'm looking to do this multiple times, so I can create a graph each time in order to get an idea of what the data would look like if I only had a point for every minute.

Is there a macro that I could write, that would hide every cell except every 60th one? I was thinking that I could hide it based on the time. What would the code look like if my time was in 00:00:00 format? It's increasing, so I need it to hide cells that aren't equal to XX:XX:01, for example.
 

Excel Facts

Shade all formula cells
To shade all formula cells: Home, Find & Select, Formulas to select all formulas. Then apply a light fill color.
Assuming your time data are in column A you could enter the following formula into column B starting at B2 to flag the last instance of each minute:

Code:
=MINUTE(B2)<>MINUTE(B3)

You could also use the following to flag every 60th row:

Code:
=MOD(ROW(),60)=0

And then filter to the flagged values. A chart will only show the unfiltered rows.

That kind of gets at what I am interested. However I am having trouble with this still. The second code you gave worked the first time, but I can't figure out how to get it to work a second time.

I am trying first hide rows 1-59, 61-119, 121-179.... And then I want to hide rows 2-60, 62-120, 122-180, ect. I am pretty much looking to make 60 graphs without having to manually hide the data
