charting, adding a random gridline
I have fished thru the objects, looked at my macros, and I cannot
figure out how to add a random gridline on a chart. Is it as convoluted as some postings seem to make this, or is there a method I'm overlooking the obvious, some very simple... chart.gridline(axis, val)? Thank you |

Its value? (where it crosses an axis?) Vertical/Horizontal? Its appearance - colour, thickness etc. What's the aim of the random gridline? An evasive animal, random; throw something at him and he'll probably duck. -- p45cal *p45cal* ------------------------------------------------------------------------ p45cal's Profile: http://www.thecodecage.com/forumz/member.php?userid=558 View this thread: http://www.thecodecage.com/forumz/sh...d.php?t=159772 Microsoft Office Help |

charting, adding a random gridline
Excel's gridlines are associated with the axes they cross, with spacing
equal to the major or minor spacings of these axes. You can't add just one arbitrarily located gridline. You can add reference lines to a chart: Add a Line to a Column or Line Chart http://peltiertech.com/Excel/Charts/AddLine.html Arbitrary Gridlines and Axis Labels http://peltiertech.com/Excel/Charts/ArbGridLabel.html - Jon ------- Jon Peltier Peltier Technical Services, Inc. http://peltiertech.com/ cate wrote: I have fished thru the objects, looked at my macros, and I cannot figure out how to add a random gridline on a chart.
