X Axis on wrong side

I have a simple line chart. The data are all negative numbers. The X-axis
category labels (the months of the year - Jan, Feb, etc.) appear along the
TOP of the chart rather than the bottom. How can I move the labels to the
traditional bottom of the chart.

Art

double click on the axis, select patterns and set tick mark labels to low

Art,

You can also try double-clicking on the Y axis labels. In the Format Axis
dialog box, go to the Scale tab. In the input that says "Category (X) Axis
Crosses At" enter the minimum value from your Y Axis. At this point your X
axis labels and tick marks will move to the bottom of the chart.
