A Line-Column Chart: How do I specify which series should be

I have been trying to make a chart that shows one data series as a Line. Then I want to add 2 or 3 data series as Columns. However, Excel chooses arbitrarily which data series to make Column or Line. I seem to have no choice in the matter. How do I choose?

Will the fill handle fill 1, 2, 3?
Yes! Type 1 in a cell. Hold down Ctrl while you drag the fill handle.
Well, you DO have a choice.

Click on the serie that you want to be a column, and in the chart toolbar, select that chart type. Now, select the other serie, and do the same, but this time select a line type.
