    2nd line on chart is a Sum, rather than starting from 0

    Hi, I'm creating a simple line chart with 2 lines of data. For some reason, instead of the 2nd line of data starting at 0, it adds on to the first line & therefore overinflates its numbers. (ie. Instead of showing 60% for line 1 and 80% for line 2, it shows 60% for line 1 and 140% for line 2) The entire 2nd line is a sum of the data from the first and 2nd line. Is there a way to get each line to start at 0?? Thanks!!

    Check your chart type. Maybe you're using Stacked Line Chart instead of the basic line chart. If that is not the case, please post an example workbook.

    cheers
