hello.

I was wondering if someone could help me with the following problem.

I am trying to perform an exponential fit to the following data
{{x,y}}

data
={{50,22},{64,62},{78,122},{93,269},{107,414},{122,507},{136,597}}

Fit[data,Exp[x],x]

what I get is 

1.94272422061017735^-63 *E^x Which is not correct.

With Excel I get 7.5*E^0.0034x which is correct.
 
How can I do this with Mathematica ?

Thanks.
-Joseph.
