Could you describe in detail what your data looks like and what type of graph you are trying to make?

Generally your x data goes in column a and y data goes in column b.

What version of Excel? Microsoft has a habit of moving things around to "improve" the user interface with each new version.

The Office 2003 version I use calls them charts.
If you highlight the data, then click Insert, click chart on the drop down, you should get a chart wizard.
Just follow the wizard step by step filling in what you want to add to the "chart" (graph) till you get to the "chart location".
At this point, I recommend you you pick "As a new sheet" and fill what you want displayed on the tab.
