Graphing Question

Greetings!

I am trying to graph a set of data in 'XY (Scatter)' and am running
into a problem I've never seen before.

There are only seven values for 'X' - numbers 0 through 6.
'Y' is a set of percentages ranging from '0.00%' to '13.00%'
I have about 7,000 of these pairs.

When I graph this, I am not of seeing the six discreet bands of
percentages that I would expect. For some reason, instead of graphing
the 'X' value, it is graphing the order that the 'Y' value comes in
the list.

Instead of graphing:

RATING      INCREASE
   4                 3.0%
   4                11.0%
   6                 1.0%
   3                 2.0%
   5                 0.0%
   2                 6.0%

Sorry, that was odd...

Anyway, instead of graphing:

RATING      INCREASE
   4                 3.0%
   4               11.0%
   6                 1.0%
   3                 2.0%
   5                 0.0%
   2                 6.0%

RATING      INCREASE
  1st                 3.0%
  2nd               11.0%
  3rd                 1.0%
  4th                 2.0%
  5th                 0.0%
  6th                 6.0%

Any idea why? I have graphed this correctly on a different worksheet,
and I can't find the diffference between that one and this incorrect
one.

Thanks for any feedback you can give.

Trey ~
