Probably the "Y Error Bars" tab in the "Format Data Series" dialog box.

Error bar
Well I just tried recording a macro while I changed the width and this is
what I got: ActiveSheet.ChartObjects("Chart 1").Activate ActiveChart.SeriesCollection(1).ErrorBars.Select With Selection.Border .LineStyle = xlContinuous .ColorIndex = 57 .Weight = xlThick End With Selection.EndStyle = xlCap If you look up the Weight property in the help text you will see that it has only these 4 possible values: xlHairline xlThin xlMedium xlThick "dennis" wrote in message om...

Error bar
Thks stephen.
But what i actually want is to build a histogram on a XY scatter chart. i want to use the drop line as a histogram bar but even ..weight=xlThick is not wide enough. There any other way of doing that ? "Stephen Bye" <. wrote in message ...
