    Primary and Secondary axis on pivot chart

    Hello!

    I have a file that has four fields date, name, t_count and c_count and I want to capture all fields in one single chart. Since the names are repeated on different dates, I am unable to create one. I tried a pivot chart method but the chart is looking garbled and I cant make out anything. Can someone advice how to make a presentable chart or a pivot chart with the attached data? Thanks

    As with any such question it depends what the point is that you're trying to get across to your reader. The same data can be presented in different ways and one will be better than the other for a particular user.

    You haven't offered us much idea but see if the attached gets you started.

    Thanks. I was looking somewhat similar to that. You have given me a start. Let me play around with options. I will get back if I need some help/advice. Meanwhile, I would appreciate if you can give me steps on how to draw the chart and get the secondary axis option. Also how to put the secondary scale on the right.
