Hi good people!,

I have a chart with four series. All series have "before" and "after" figures. The series names are "set 1" to "set 4". I know I can plot any of the figures on a secondary axis, for example the "before" can be on bar display, while "after" is on line display. However, I have searched but cannot find: I would like the first 3 sets on bar, "before" and "after". The fourth set displays percentages "before" and "after". I would like to see only set 4 on a secondary vertical axis. Can this be done at all?..

All and any help will be greatly appreciated...thanx guys!

Yes it can be done no problem.

  1. Create your graph for the first three series. Do it in the worksheet, not as a separate chart sheet (yet)
  2. set up the graph as you want it.
  3. Now select the fourth series, copy it (Ctrl-C) ,
  4. select the graph and
  5. paste the series into the grqaph (Ctrl-V). It will show as a new series in the same format as the others.
  6. Select the series in the graph (click on it once) and right click, 'Format Data Series' Tick the Secondary Axis option. press Close
  7. It the others are a bar and you want this one to be a line, then right click the series again and select the Change Series Chart Type... option and choose your line.
