Adding lines of data to an area chart
 

Hi,

I have an area chart that has a timeline as the x-axis (ie # of days)
and a % as the y-axis.

I'd like to be able to add a data series onto the chart as a line
rather than have it make up part of the area chart. (I'd effectively
like the area chart to act as a background and to overlay multiple data
series as lines over the top)

Am I making sense? Could anyone suggest how this could be done?

Thank you,

Al

Use the 2Y axis for your line chart and set the numbers on the 2Y axis
accordingly so the lines fall where you want them to. 2Y formatting is
separate and apart from Y.
