Default Excel column chart with a 2ndary y axis w/o bars overplotting?

Thanks, Jon. The file I'm creating is for a template, so the data will be
changing constantly. Do you know if there is any other solution that would
allow the data table to change if the chart data changes?

You should use an alternative for the data table. Make a table in the
worksheet adjacent to your chart, or make the table elsewhere, select and
copy it, and use Edit menu Paste Picture Link to paste a linked image of
the table on or near the chart..

This post was very useful, thanks! I have another related question,
though.
How can you delete the dummy data legends if you're using the "Data Table"
option in the "Chart Options..." menu?

Your URL does not go to the example. Do you have another?
All I see is a picture of a flower there.
