I am creating a graph in Excel 2002. I have 2 data series and I need 2 y-axis
due to different concentrations between the 2 data series. Everytime I try to
add the 2nd axis, I can only view one of the data series.

If you are using a secondary axis, check the scaling on both axes. You may
have it set so that you can't see one of the series.

Barb,

It seems that when I envoke the 2nd axis, it superimposes the one data
series on top of the other. Ideally, I would like the scales to be the same
on both axis, I just need to show that the units of measurment for the 2 data
series were different. I suggested to our client to just add a footnote, but
they definitely want 2 axis. Any thought?

Can you give an example of your data sets and the Primary and Secondary Y
axis ranges? Alternatively, something like this might work for you:

but I'd work on the secondary axis first before embarking on Stacked charts.

Laura -

If the scales are the same on both axes, isn't the second axis
redundant? You can reflect different units in the axis title: "Weight
(lb) or Distance (miles)".
