There are two types of category axis: Category and Time-Scale. If
Automatic (the default case) is selected, Excel guesses which to use based on the data. In your case, Excel guessed Category for Automatic. If your X values were dates, Excel would have guessed Time-Scale, but it would still say Automatic until you changed it. - Jon ------- Jon Peltier, Microsoft Excel MVP Peltier Technical Services Tutorials and Custom Solutions http://PeltierTech.com/ _______ stevel wrote: Under Primary Axis - What is the difference between Category and Automatic?
