    Graphing a column graph within a line graph

    Hey guys, I have a line graph that charts a metrics score as a monthly average in a line graph. However, I want to also chart how many times each answer is chosen in the given month and chart that as a column graph WITHIN the line graph. So bascially have the column graph charted on the secondary axis. The problem is I can't seem to figure out how to do it. Any help would be appreciated.

    The green boxes are what should be charted in the new column graph.


    NEVERMIND: Solved it myself. Just now cant find how to delete this post. Moderator please delete.

    That's a good point. It was actually a pretty easy solution.

    Select the Data you want to add to to the graph and add at as a new series. Then, when it is graphed, right click it and there is an option to change the chart type for that specific data. Change it to what type you want, right click it again to set it to the secondary access and boom. You have a column graph within a line graph.
