Hello there,

I request your help on solving this question.

Say, I have values such as 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10 plotted in Excel Chart.

If I want to delete values 3,4, the missing values can be interpolated using the "Hidden and Empty Cells" option. This option connects only through a thick line.

Can I change the interpolated values alone to show up as dotted line ?

Please let me know if this can be done.

Thanks.

Does the VLOOKUP table have to be sorted?
No! when you are using an exact match, the VLOOKUP table can be in any order. Best-selling items at the top is actually the best.
