    Two-axis chart with stacked column and line

    Hi everyone.

    I need to show 4 data sets on one chart. Ideally I'd like to have a column showing 2 data sets (both are percentages of the same item) and 2 lines. One for a trend and 1 for a different data set.

    Has anyone done this.

    I use excel 2003 btw....

    Create a stacked column on all 4 data series.
    Select the series that is to be a line chart and change it's line type.
    The change the series to the secondary axis via the Format dialog.

    Do not use the built-in custom chart types.
    Cheers

    Perfect answer to the task I've just set myself
    Works a treat.

    FYI Plotting pupils scores across a series of tests using the line. Wil have stacked columns in the background indicating the grading bands.
