Does anyone know if it's possible to draw a chart like this in Excel?

What I mean is the grey +/- error band. Each point has a different +/- 2 SD error. I can plot the data with the error bars associated with each point - what I can't work out how to do is draw a grey band like they have here.
 
I'd also be interested in the answer to this for future work.

I've found a method of creating shaded areas:

But haven't managed to get it looking completely perfect, you'd expect something like this to be an easy function to add.

EDIT: Kinda got it working if you input the higher standard deviation as a series with the lower as another series, making the lower a white background.
