    Charting - Custom Types

    When using the custom type "Line - Column on 2 axes"

    Is there a way I can choose which series will go on which axes? Or should I ask is there a way I can assign Line or Column?

    If you want full control start by creating a chart of 1 type, say column. This will include all the series.
    The select the series you want to change and change it's chart type to line.

    Re: Charting - Custom Types

    Hi Andy, Thanks for the reply.

    Your suggestion is very helpful although I am keen to have 2 Y-axis'.

    I should have mentioned this in my initial post.

    Any further ideas on how to achieve this?

    Once you have 2 series you can select one of them and on the Format dialog set it to the secondary axis.
