You can run the following macros to set the limits on the x-axis. This kind of x-axis is based on a count, i.e. just because the first column is labeled some number, it is still 1 on the axis scale. Ex. If you want to plot columns 5 through 36, set 5 as the x-axis minimum, and 36 as the x-axis maximum.
the following excel restrictions per worksheet apply: 1  excel 2003: can handle 65k rows. 2  excel 2007 (and later): can handle 1M rows.
The Big Grid of 1 million rows and 16,000 columns in Microsoft Office Excel 2007, along with many other limit increases, substantially increases the size of worksheets that you can build compared to earlier versions of Excel.
