Origin 8 prof. WXP:

Is there any single way to graph different ranges of data from a unique column into the same graph and with different symbols?.

I know I can put them in different columns to be plotted into the same graph but that is prone to errors when there are lots of data and I would like to avoid it if possible. On the other hand, putting all the data into a unique column is easier to apply the same calculations to all.

For instance I have 2 sets of data with the same X axes and different Y data and I want to plot those 2 into the same graph with round and square symbols, respectively:
X Y
0 0 round symbol
1 10
2 20
3 30

0 100 square symbol
1 200
2 300
3 400

Actually, I have also Y error values in the column next to Y values.

Thank you for your attention, Julio

Yes, thank you it works beautifully except for the identification of each of the ranges. Any other trick so that different names for each of the ranges can be included in the graph?

With respect to the column alternative, what I mean is that since you have to repeat every calculation for each column it is more probable to introduce errors. It is easier to make the same calculations for all the ranges when all are included into the same column but them I had the problem that for graphing I needed to copy every range into a diferent column. The use of your recomended ctrl fixes that. The only problem reamining is that now I have to all the ranges with the same column name in the automatic legend, I have to identify the name of each of the ranges in the graph manually. Is there an alternative? That will be perfect!!

Thank you for your attention, sincerely Dr.coll
