Yes, it is possible to display labels for minor gridlines in Excel. Here are the steps to do so:
To create a button that toggles the display of minor gridline labels, you can use a macro. Here's an example of how to do it: 1. Press Alt + F11 to open the Visual Basic Editor. 2. In the editor, click on "Insert" and select "Module" from the drop-down menu. 3. Paste the following code into the module: Formula:
5. Click on the "Developer" tab in the ribbon and select "Insert" from the "Controls" group. 6. Choose a button control and draw it on the worksheet. 7. Right-click on the button and select "Assign Macro" from the drop-down menu. 8. Select the "ToggleMinorGridlineLabels" macro from the list and click "OK." 9. Click on the button to toggle the display of minor gridline labels.

Hi Neville,
I do this using a dummy series, linked to a check box. Then I use Rob Bovey's chart labeller for the dummy series. Bit difficult to explain, but I have an eaxmple if you like.

entHi,
I'll try and explain in more detail, or I' can email you the file. Youll' need to download Rob Bovey's free chart labeller utility, which is a great little add-in. Assuming you want x-axis labels, I made a dummy series, consisiting of two columns of numbers. The first contains the axis labels corresponding to your minor tick marks,(in say C1:C20) the second all being zero, (in say D1:D20). Add these to your chart as an x-y series to get a series along the x axis. You can hide the points later. Add a checkbox and link it to a suitable cell. Assume G1. Then, enter another series in E1:E20 for the labels, by entering +IF($G$1,C1,"") and copy down. So checking the checkbox will turn these labels on and off. Use Rob's chart labeller to label the dummy series and you should find using the checkbox, you can turn the axis labels on and off. Would it be easier if I sent you the file?
