Building 3 axis chart.
I am trying to build a chart that has 3 axis. Such as x-axis, y-axis, z-axis.
I want to put 3 different data for these 3 axis; such as: time data, profit data, phone call data. Could anyone tell me how to do it? Thanks in advance, Erol |

Building 3 axis chart.
Have you tried a 3-D surface chart? Beware, of course, of the fact that
viewing 3D data on a 2D display can sometimes be confusing. -- David Biddulph "Erol Pekuz" <Erol wrote in message ... I am trying to build a chart that has 3 axis. Such as x-axis, y-axis, z-axis.

Building 3 axis chart.
The tertiary axis is not a third orthogonal axis, and in general it's not
very effective in terms of understanding the data. That can be said about 3D charts, as well: in general they are not very effective in terms of presenting understandable data. Excel has no native 3D x-y-z charts, and any renderings of 3D objects on a 2D medium (paper or computer screen) is going to be difficult to read accurately. - Jon ------- Jon Peltier, Microsoft Excel MVP Tutorials and Custom Solutions Peltier Technical Services, Inc. - http://PeltierTech.com _______ "John Mansfield" wrote in message ...
