Maybe I didn't describe it quite right.
You don't need to change the bar data. Add extra data series to handle
displaying of smileys
The example uses data labels with the wingdings font.

Hi andy,
thanks for the reply but it doesn't answetr my question.
Just to clarify I'm not trying to change the data representation merely the
axis values - so if we have a chart showing percent against time I'd like to
change the numbers 0 - 100 for images of smiley faces - not the data itself
or the plot points.
thanks,
Ed.

Hi,
One possible way is to use a dummy data series plotted as an xyscatter.
Then use custom markers.
Jon Peltier has an explanation of using custom markers.

Hi,
does anyone know how to replace the axis text on an excel chart with
graphics?
So for example if I have a bar chart and the x (vertical) axis has values
from 0 to 100 - I'd like to replace the numbers 0 - 100 with smiley face
graphics - anyone got any ideas?
thanks so much in advance,
Ed.
