Ironically, the XY series can plot anywhere along a text axis in 2007. The
first category is at X=1, the second at X=2, etc. I hadn't noticed (or at
least I hadn't remembered) that the time scale axis didn't work this way.

Dear Group,

until XL2003 I could create a column chart, configure the x-axis to as a
time-axis (for x-scaling purposes)
and I could place scattered charts (as carrier for text and symbols) at
any (non-integer) x-position.

Using XL2007, scattered charts can only be positioned on x-integer-values.
So I am forced to put a second transparent scattered-chart over the
column-chart?
Or is there any better way to do this in ONE chart?

Thanks in advance: Holger.
