Default log log charts in excel

Can somebody please advise me how I may chart data using log scales on either
or both axes?

Thanks

Hi Thanks for the response, however this only allows it on the vertical
axis....
what about the horizontal axis?

Thanks

Same.

If you don't have that option available, it's probably because you've got
the wrong Chart Type. If you are using a Line Chart, change it to XY (which
can still do lines, with our without marker points).
The Chart Types are very misleadingly named. Many people end up choosing a
line chart when what they need is XY.

Hi Dave,

Sounds like you are using a line chart.
Change it to an XYscatter and you can apply
log scale to either axes.
