Excel chart, right scale
Is there a way to assign one of 2 data series to the right
scale in Excel chart, and keep the other data series in the left scale? I don't see any reference to right scale in the "Excel Help". Any suggestion is appreciated. |

1. Select the series that you want on the secondary axis
2. Choose FormatSelected Data Series 3. On the Axis tab, select Secondary Axis. 4. Click OK To make it easier to interpret, you can colour the font of the axis labels, to match the series colour. Jon Peltier uses this technique in some of his examples: http://www.geocities.com/jonpeltier/....html#Col2Axes Richard wrote: Is there a way to assign one of 2 data series to the right scale in Excel chart, and keep the other data series in the left scale?

Easiest way is to select the 'Custom Types'option instead
of 'Standard Types' then scroll down to the 'Lines on 2 Axes' option - it's a confusing icon because it shows bar graph/line mix but it seems to produce 2 lines. It's probably better to select 'Series' rather than 'Data Range' at the next step to ensure you get them in the right order -----Original Message----- Is there a way to assign one of 2 data series to the right scale in Excel chart, and keep the other data series in the left scale?
