30. Using Excel to Draw Graphs (A) Baseline Graph (A-B) Two Phase Graph (A-B-A) Three Phase Graph

31. Baseline Graph A

32. Step 1. Enter data for the Baseline Phase

33. Step 2. a. Highlight the graph information b. Click on the Graph Icon; c. Choose Line Graph d. Choose Graph Style e. Click on Next Graph Icon Line Graph Graph Style Next Highlight Graph Info

34. Step 3. Click on Next Next

35. Step 4. a.Type Chart Title b.Type X axis Label c.Type Y axis Label d.Click Next Chart Title X axis Label Y axis Label Next

36. Step 5. Click Finish Finish

37. Step 6. Admire Your Work

38. Two Phase Graph A-B AB

39. Step 7. Enter data for second phase. Note: data is not entered into same column as Baseline data

40. Step 8. Do exactly as you did in Step 2 except you must choose the line graph style indicated. Choose This Line Graph Style Only Step 9. Do exactly as you did in steps 4 and 5.

41. Step 10. Add a Phase Line a. Click on the line shape b. Draw the phase line on the graph

42. Step 11. Add Phase Labels a. Click on the text Box b. Align the text box and type the phase label

43. Step 12. Enjoy Your Work AB

44. Three Phase Graph A-B-A ABA

45. Step 13. Add additional data to appropriate column Step 14. Do everything else the same
