Default x and y axis

Also, when you set up your next chart, put the X values in the column to the
left of the Y values.

Hi Samy,

It sounds like this is not a line chart but an XY-Scatter?

Here are a number of ways to do this:
1. You can select the series on the chart and edit the Series formula.
For example in the formula below:
=SERIES(Sheet1!$D$4,Sheet1!$C$5:$C$15,Sheet1!$D$5: $D$15,1)
You would swap the C5:C15 and D5:D15 references
2. You can choose ChartTools, Design, Select Data, Edit and reselect the
two ranges
3. You can select the series on the chart and then drag the border of the
blue highlight down one row and over to the other column, then drag the
purple highlight where the first range is, and then move the blue border
up one row to highlight the second range.

Cheers,
Shane Devenshire

Hi, using Excel 2007 i am creating a line chart using price and quantity
data. When creating chart excel default values to x and y axis (X - price
and
y - Quantity), However i require these axis's to be inverted.

How do i manually select which values got on which axis?
