swap axes
In a line chart, Excel seems to predetermine the category axis - how can I
swap this so that my Y-value axis appears along the bottom? |

Hi,
Have a look at Jon Peltier's page http://peltiertech.com/Excel/Charts/Y_CategoryAxis.html Cheers Andy Fridgemaster wrote: In a line chart, Excel seems to predetermine the category axis - how can I swap this so that my Y-value axis appears along the bottom? -- Andy Pope, Microsoft MVP - Excel http://www.andypope.info |

Hi,
I've got the same problem as Fridgemaster. Andy, good try, but your solution is not what we are asking. Primarily, we want to know how swap the x-axis with the y-axis. Please let me know if anyone finds a way to deal with this software which thinks humans are too stupid to decide how they want to represent their chart. Thanks!

Hi,
In what way is it not what you are asking. Assuming a line chart, xaxis is categorical and yaxis is value, the example explains how to swap them. If the line chart is really a xyscatter with values on both axes then you can just change the range references. Cheers Andy Alex Tay wrote: Hi, I've got the same problem as Fridgemaster.
