Although the instructions are well-written, they do not
seem to work with Office Excel 2003 (11.6355.6360) SP1.

I can work around one problem (Paste Special is no
longer permitted when the chart is selected -- I use
the custom chart type "line - column on 2 axes").

But when I perform the actions that are intended to
move the numeric axis from vertical to horizontal,
Excel insists on treating the numeric axis as categories,
centering the numeric labels again.
