To make the area chart change vertically up or down at a single X value,
you need to use some kind of numerical values, not categories. Where you want the vertical change, put a duplicate number for X, and put both values for Y. This data for example, will produce an area chart that ramps upward, and at X=4, it drops from 6 to 2: Value 1 3 2 4 3 5 4 6 4 2 5 2 Plot the data, then using Chart Options from the Chart menu, click on the Axes tab, and change to a time-scale category axis. This turns 1 through 5 to 1/1/1900 to 1/5/1900, so double click on the X axis, and change the number format to something other than a date. - Jon ------- Jon Peltier, Microsoft Excel MVP Peltier Technical Services Tutorials and Custom Solutions http://PeltierTech.com/ _______ jarvo wrote: sorry about the late reply, been away and i forgot i posted this :D basically i have an area graph, the "Won" part goes smoothly up then smoothly down like a hill. i want it to go smoothly up then straight down, like a cliff. hard to explain with out pictures.
