    Hi. I am a recent switcher to Mac, and Numbers, but I dont think my problem is confined to Numbers alone.

    This might sound stupid, but how do I plot data on a chart that consists of just two or three columns of numbers, no text?

    For example, I am trying to plot a supply/demand schedule for my economics class, and the data is similar to this:

    Price QuantityDemanded QuantitySupplied
    5000 0 500
    4000 100 400
    3000 200 300
    etc


    When I try plotting it it puts the Price on the x axis, and the quantity on the y axis. Is there any way to change this? Because I need the price to go on the Yaxis and vice versa.

    I wasn't able to help you because I have yet to use Numbers myself. But looks like you solved your problem :).
