Hunted through Prism's Analyze menu for ANCOVA? It isn't there, and GraphPad's own FAQ confirms they've never shipped one. Prism can still do it, through two documented routes most users never find: the simple-linear-regression slopes test for the parallel-slopes assumption, and multiple regression with dummy-coded groups for the adjusted comparison. Here are both step by step, plus an honest comparison with describing the same analysis in plain language instead.

Describe your experiment in plain English and it picks the right test, runs it, and explains the result.
