Hey There,

I have several series of data which are of variable lengths and value distributions but have similar endpoints, eg:

Series 15075125150200225275300
Series 212358121827[continued
further]
Series 360105184322

<tbody>
</tbody>

I was hoping to be able to chart these series relative to their own completion (in other words, such that they all ended at 100%). I have tried manually generating the X(%)-Values in another table that looks like this:
Series 112.5%25%37.5%50%62.5%75%87.5%100%
Series 27.14%14.29%21.43%28.57%35.71%42.86%50%57.14%[etc.]
Series 325%50%75%100%

<tbody>
</tbody>


I entered a number of the series into a Line Chart by hand, using "Add Series," and putting the Percentage-Table's range in the X-Axis entry box and the Data-Table's range in the Y-Axis entry box. Unfortunately, the Chart is graphing the data based on the index of the Percentage-Table's range: in other words, the X-points for all the ranges graphs at 1 to start (instead of, ex., 12.5%, 7.14%, 25%) and end at whatever the last index is (ex., 8,15,4).

The only other method I thought of was to make a table with header values of 1%-100% (I'm sure, though, requiring smaller increments) and having the table cross-reference the other two tables to place each number from the first table onto the third table in the percentage column dictated by the second table. This, however, seemed a bit too convoluted, so I was hoping to learn a better way of graphing it.

Thanks in advance!
