Creting new graph templates

Lyndsey has attended:
Excel Advanced course

by - delegate Lyndsey [3 posts] (2008 Jan 23 Wed, 09:50) replyReply

Hi

I need to biuld a graph that works of two axes as a bar and a line chart so that I can compare two peices or data that correlate to each other but have different scales.

This isnt available in my graph options but I have used it before on previous computers as a template so think I need to build it as a new template.

How do I do this?

Thanks

Lyndsey

RE: Column Line 2 axes graph

Hi Lyndsey,

Thanks for your question.

I am not sure if it is necessary to create a template for this case. But try the following steps first:

    1. Select all the graph data
    2. Select Chart Wizard
    3. On Step 1: Chart Type, switch tab to "Custom Types"
    4. Scroll down the list for "Line - Column on 2 axes"
    5. Press NEXT and follow the rest of the wizard to create the chart

See if this is the result you want, if not I still have another way to achieve this.

Regards,

Excel tip:

The dual nature of toolbar buttons

Many toolbar buttons are dual purpose, though the two purposes are often linked in some way. For example, Align Left aligns a cell's contents to the left of the cell. However, hold down Shift and press the Align Left button: Excel aligns the cell contents to the right.
You may respond: So what? Well, you can reduce the number of buttons on your toolbar to make your screen less cluttered and allow more room for, perhaps, some of your own commands. After all, what's the point of an Align Right button when Shift+Align Left does the same thing?
