Hi Folks,

I have format my axix for chart 1 which is in time format, so it looks like this:

  • Minimum = 0.5 (12:00 midday)

    Maximum = 1.0 (00:00 Midnight)
So the graph starts at 12:00 midday and finishes at 00:00 Midnight.

I am now trying to format my axis for chart 2 like this so it will start at 00:00 Midnight and finish at 12:00 midday.

  • Minimum = 1.0 (00:00 Midnight)

    Maximum = 0.5 (12:00 midday)
However it won't allow me to do it saying that the maximum needs to be a higher value than the minimum.

Does anyon know a differnet way that i could change chart 2 so it starts at 00:00 Midnight and finishes at 12:00 midday?

Thanks

If you start asking yourself if now is a good time to save your Excel workbook, the answer is Yes
1) Midnight also equals zero, so go from 0 to 0.5.

2) Use a fully qualified date-time. Today is 38672; noon was 38672.5, dinnertime was around 38672.75, etc.
