Secondary X axis
Greetings!
Is there a way to create a secondary X axis. I have data like below: Jul-04 Aug-04 Sep-04 Oct-04 Baseline 6,270 12,914 19,883 27,209 Forecast 6,270 12,914 19,883 26,876 Actual 6,257 12,705 19,469 26,521 Threshold Green Green Yellow Red The dates need to be in X axis and the Threshold (Green, Red, Yellow) needs to be in X axis correspomding to the date too. Any suggestions? Thanks much! |

If you want both the date and the threshold to be on the same side of
the graph, there is no need for a secondary axis. Suppose the dates are in row 1 (with Jul-04 in B1). Then, insert a new row at row 2. In the new B2 enter the formula =B1&CHAR(10)&B6. Copy to C2:E2. Plot A2:E5. -- Regards, Tushar Mehta www.tushar-mehta.com Excel, PowerPoint, and VBA add-ins, tutorials Custom MS Office productivity solutions In article , says... Greetings!

Thank you so very much Tushar. I tried, the date turned to a serial number
like "38169 Green". How can I keep the date in date format? Thanks.

Use =TEXT(B1,"dd-mmm-yy")&CHAR(10)&B6 Change the TEXT function's 2nd argument as desired. -- Regards, Tushar Mehta www.tushar-mehta.com Excel, PowerPoint, and VBA add-ins, tutorials Custom MS Office productivity solutions In article , says...
