label the category axis from 0 to 30, step 5 in an excel chart
My excel chart is a graph of Interest's share and Principal's share of each
Monthly Payment of the 360 payments of a 30-year mortgage. It's a nice continuous graph that shows the point where Principal's share becomes dominant (at 18.5 years). All i've wanted to do these past three days is have an x-axis labeled with tick marks starting at 0, ending nicely at exactly 30 , and with the tick marks 5,10, 15, 20 and 25 in between. Why is this so difficult a challenge? Why did i have to buy that $25.00 dummies book and still not find the answer? Thanks for the help. |

Right click the x-axis; menu pops up; click on Format Axis
In dialog box, click Scale tab, replace the Man and Max and tick setting by what you want DO NOT have a check mark in the Auto boxes And it that does not work come back for more. -- Bernard V Liengme www.stfx.ca/people/bliengme remove caps from email "johnny hanlon" <johnny hanlon @discussions.microsoft.com wrote in message ...

Bernard forgot to remind you to make an XY chart, not a Line chart.
