If I have the following data for example:

<style type="text/css"><!--td {border: 1px solid #ccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}--></style>
Weight (lb)Type of DogSpeed (mph)
50Dalmatian12
60Dalmatian10
70Dalmatian11
55Dalmatian12
65Dalmatian13
70Golden Retriever5
80Golden Retriever4
85Golden Retriever6
75Golden Retriever7
65Golden Retriever3
76Golden Retriever7

<colgroup><col style="width: 70px"><col width="103"><col width="80"></colgroup><tbody>
</tbody>

I want to create a line chart that shows weight on the y axis and speed on the x axis with one line for Dalmatians and another for Golden Retrievers. How do I accomplish this? Should I be setting up my data tables differently?

Excel Facts

What do {} around a formula in the formula bar mean?
{Formula} means the formula was entered using Ctrl+Shift+Enter signifying an old-style array formula.
Currently I am only getting line charts that show one line for weight and another for speed with data points for breed type. :(
