Converting Graphs from 2003 to 2007
I update data on a weekly basis that then pulls to separate tabs in my excel
workbook & simultaneously updates a dozen or so graphs. With the conversion from 2003 to 2007, my graphs are no longer working correctly. The x-axis is now at the top of my graphs instead of at the bottom. Is there a way to easily fix this or is there a way to keep it in the 2003 version? When i update my pre-conversion graph package, it looks correct until i close the file & reopen it. I can't figure this out - please help! -- - Cathy |

Converting Graphs from 2003 to 2007
You can readily change the position of the X axis by clicking on the Y axis,
and pressing Ctrl+1 (numeral one) to format the axis. Change the value at which the other axis crosses. Simple charts should not have this kind of problem, but I've noticed it in some combo charts and charts with secondary axes. I don't really know what causes it, other than perhaps different default behavior if certain parameters are not explicitly defined. - Jon ------- Jon Peltier, Microsoft Excel MVP Tutorials and Custom Solutions Peltier Technical Services, Inc. - http://PeltierTech.com _______ "Cathy" wrote in message ...

Converting Graphs from 2003 to 2007
The CTL 1 trick is helpful. However, after i reset the position of the X
axis, click save & close the spreadsheet, when I reopen the spreadsheet the X axes have all reset to the top of the graphs. Any ideas? Thanks for your help!

Converting Graphs from 2003 to 2007
Is this a file which was born in Excel 2003 and converted to 2007? If so, it
may be helpful to rebuild the file completely in 2007. - Jon ------- Jon Peltier, Microsoft Excel MVP Tutorials and Custom Solutions Peltier Technical Services, Inc. - http://PeltierTech.com _______ "Cathy" wrote in message ...
