Is there a way of changing your graph to a 2x bar, 1xline graph without going through the chart types? i.e. is there a way of selecting your third series of data when you cannot see it on the graph?

Hi Penny,

Thanks for the question,

To change the initial setting of your default chart you create a normal standard chart, and from there change the standard chart to how you would like it to appear each time. In this case a 2xbar and 1xline.

Still in the "new" chart, go to the chart menu and down to Chart types, make sure you are in the tab that says Custom Types, and click the radion button at the bottom that says "user define", then click the button that says "Add". Give your chart a name and a description (optional), click OK, then click the button "Set as default chart" and it should work.

The second part of your question, I would use the Chart toolbar, specifically the selection (drop down) box to find the series you are looking for if you can not see it on the Chart.

Let me know if it works

Tracy

Excel tip:

Repeating headings on spreadsheets that print on more than one page

By default when you print a spreadsheet out and it prints on more than one page, the headings at the top and the side of the spreadsheet don't appear on all the pages following page 1.

To get Excel to repeat headings on all pages when printing, go to File - Page Setup - Sheet, then select the rows to repeat at the top of pages, and the columns to repeat at the side of pages by clicking on the red arrows at the right side of the two boxes under the 'Print titles' area. Then click OK.

If you view your spreadsheet in Print Preview, you should see the headings being repeated on each page.
