Very often, though, the chart you want to make is not possible using the default Excel axis. Perhaps you want to use a custom scale, or you want to break the axis to indicate a change in scale. Excel MVP Jon Peltier demonstrates how to achieve special effects by adding extra series to a chart, and formatting these series with the axis features you want. As time permits, at the end of the presentation Jon answers your general questions on Excel charting. _____
