Double click on the axis, and on the Patterns tab, for Tick Mark Labels,
choose Low.

Is there a way to move data labels. I have negative and positive values on
my
chart and it caused the axis to move up, but so did the labels. and now
the
lables are in the middle accross the data points. looks busy.

is there anyway to have the labels display on the bottom of the bar chart
even though the axis is not at the bottom anymore?
