Chart Axis naming question
When you set up a chart in Excel, you can format the axis' size, decimal
point, etc. Is there anyway that you can add text into the axis title instead of it being just the numerical value? So, for instance, if my line chart has the Y axis with a scale of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, is there anyway I can format the access to say 1 - Expert, 2 - Advanced, etc??? i know that I can move the chart into Powerpoint and put a text box down the axis, but I was hoping there may be a way do just do that in Excel. Thanks!! |

Hi,
Have a look at Jon's page on creating arbitrary axis scale. http://peltiertech.com/Excel/Charts/ArbitraryAxis.html Cheers Andy SK wrote: When you set up a chart in Excel, you can format the axis' size, decimal point, etc. Is there anyway that you can add text into the axis title instead of it being just the numerical value?
