    Struggling to add a secondary axis

    Hi Guys
    I am using 2010 and have a bar chart that shows twelve monthly data values with a YTD value at the end.
    I would like to add the YTD as a secondary axis but with the position of the data it currently compresses the rest of the sheet.
    I wish to keep the data table as in the chart 1 sheet.
    I have spent a lot of frustrating time on this... do I need a Macro?

    I have attached a sample sheet with data. The data is on sheet 1.

    Any help you can give me with this would be greatly received.

    Regards
    John

    Plot the Monthly and YTD data in a chart.

    Select the YTD data on the chart. Press Ctrl+1 (numeral one) to format the series, and select Secondary Axis.

    I think you need 2 charts
    One for the 12 month and one for the YTD values
