Default Locking gridlines to be square - axes to same scale ?

Nigel,

Jon Peltier's "Make Gridlines Square" example can probably help:

I've used Excel to draw a parabola, and now I want to print it.

The trouble is that the scales of the x and y axes are arbitrary, so the
graph looks squashed. Rather than use trial and error, I figure there
must be a way to lock the axes to the same scale, so the gridlines would
be square.

I've done a Google, but didn't come up with anything useful.

I'm using Office 2003 BTW.
