If the range between max and min exceeds 1/6 of the max, then Excel
automatically sets the minimum to zero. You may have to override the scale
settings.

I look at format axis (I'm using vista) and everything is set to automatic
but still now working correctly for those values less than 74.834.

The chart is set up to allow the user to select which Geo they want
to show and it automatically refreshes. For most of the Geos, the
scale automatically sets to narrow in based on the minimum and
maximum values shown but for some of the Geos, the scale defaults to
go from 0 to 100.

Geo info is pulled from the exact same chart but point to different
cells for their source data. After further investigation, I found
that if a Geo ever had a value below 74.834%, then the scale starts
at 0 and goes up to 100. If all the values are above 74.834%, then
the chart will automatically set the range to narrow in on the values.

Ideally, we would like the y-axis scale to narrow in on the data
shown. Does anyone have any ideas?
