Hi,

if you have a y-axis hidden (ChartChart OptionsAxesValue (Y) axis),
try something like this:

ActiveChart.HasAxis(xlValue) = True '<-- add this line
With ActiveChart.Axes(xlValue)
.MinimumScale = 0
.MaximumScale = 3
.MinorUnit = 0.1
.MajorUnit = 0.5
.Crosses = xlAutomatic
.ReversePlotOrder = False
.ScaleType = xlLinear
.DisplayUnit = xlNone
End With
ActiveChart.HasAxis(xlValue) = False '<-- add this line

I am trying to plot this formula: r = a + b Cos(KQ), on a radar chart.
Everything works just fine except that when I change the values of the b
variable, Excel will not plot the chart correctly. However, if I
manually change the major gridlines, MimimumScale = 0, it plots
correctly. The macro recorder sets minimum and maximum to auto (see
below). I need to set minimum to 0 (zero). The subroutine stops at
.MinimumScaleIsAuto = True and MinimumScale = 0. The error message is
$B!H(Bunable to set MinimumScale Property of Axis class.$B!I(B Can someone tell me
how to overcome this? I appreciate your help.



Thanks.
