Line Graph Help
Hello I want to do a simple line graph - one line to go straight across and another to be graphed according to some figures I have. Is it possible to have the straight line touching the y-axis, but the other line not touching it? I can't seem to find a way given that they share the same x-axis, is there anyway to bypass this?? I'd very much appreciate any tips, thanks :) -- mickeymouse ------------------------------------------------------------------------ mickeymouse's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=30881 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=505609 |

If you're using a Line chart type, please note that you can have more complete control over the exact placement of lines (and points) by using an XY (Scatter) chart type. - Mike www.mikemiddleton.com "mickeymouse" wrote in message ...

Line Graph Help
Hi,
You can plot the straight line on the secondary axis. Then by enabling the secondary x axis you can change this to cross between categories. This will make the line touch the edge of the plot area. Here are some examples of adding datum lines to charts. http://peltiertech.com/Excel/Charts/RunChtLines.html http://peltiertech.com/Excel/Charts/AddLine.html http://tushar-mehta.com/excel/charts...nes/index.html http://www.andypope.info/charts/averageline.htm Cheers Andy mickeymouse wrote: Hello I want to do a simple line graph - one line to go straight across and another to be graphed according to some figures I have.
