Right click the x-axis; menu pops up; click on Format Axis
In dialog box, click Scale tab, replace the Man and Max and tick setting by
what you want
DO NOT have a check mark in the Auto boxes
And it that does not work come back for more.

My excel chart is a graph of Interest's share and Principal's share of
each
Monthly Payment of the 360 payments of a 30-year mortgage. It's a nice
continuous graph that shows the point where Principal's share becomes
dominant (at 18.5 years).

All i've wanted to do these past three days is have an x-axis labeled with
tick marks starting at 0, ending nicely at exactly 30 , and with the tick
marks 5,10, 15, 20 and 25 in between.
Why is this so difficult a challenge?
Why did i have to buy that $25.00 dummies book and still not find the
answer?

Thanks for the help.
