Horizontal lines in waterfall chart
 

Hi folks,

Does anyone know how to draw the horizontal lines to connect the first
ending point to second starting point in waterfall chart? I asked this
question before and one of the experts showed me the site where I could
download the sample. I am not that good in excel vba coding. Therefore, I
cant fully understand that. Could someone show me the code to draw the
horizontal lines (only) in waterfall chart.

Thanks in advance.

Tim.

You can add a set of XY series to the chart, one for each line you need drawn (add
each additional series, select it, and use Chart menu Chart Type to switch it to
an XY type). The Y values are the same as the columns use. The X values can be
determined by trial and error or algebraically calculated; keep in mind that the
columns are effectively at X values 1, 2, 3, etc. I like to go from the beginning of
one column to the end of the next. For the first two pairs of columns, and the
standard gap width of 150%, this means X goes from 0.8 to 2.2.
