Description Unknown 2002-03-07 04:28:35 UTC
Consider a simple dataset with asymmetric confidence intervals:
Percent	Lower CI	Upper 
CI
12	11.5	13
15	10.6	18.3
10	8.6	11.2
20	18.5	22.3
After creating a bar chart of 
Percent, one can select the chart and click Insert > Statistics. The resulting dialog offers 
many options for creating error bars. Unfortunately, a very useful and critical option has been 
so-far overlooked. Excel allows for the error term to be specified as a cell range. This is 
extremely useful for those of us who have multi-sheet documents and many graphs linked to data 
that gets changed on a fairly regular basis. I am currently running Build641 on Windows98 but I 
assume that this implementation is common across OS/platforms. Thanks for this. I am very keen 
to migrate fully over to OpenOffice.

Hi Falko,

sounds good to me. As this is an feature request it's up to you.
