You are working with a Line chart?
You can format the x-axis to have category labels align with the tick marks.
Just right click the axis and select Format Axis then locate the required
option

Morning,

Annoying thing about charts in excel - i cant show the tick minor tick
marks
or gridlines without showing the major ones.

The x-values in my chart are specified in the table, 70,75,80% etc. What
is
weird is it works fine on the y-axis, I have the gridlines and tick marks
only opposite the values, not between categories.

How can I get the lines and larks only opposite the values/categories
shown
on the x-axis?

Thanks
LD
