Default how to add line to stacked-clustered chart?


hi,

i've read John Mansfield's solution at
http://www.excelforum.com//showthread.php?t=332217 but it's not quite
what i'm after since for the line i only have one data point per
cluster/month and not three as in his example...

ideally i would like to add a line series to Bernard Liengme’s
stacked-clustered chart example at
http://www.stfx.ca/people/bliengme/E...ps/Columns.htm as my charts
are based on it and i like his x-axis labelling format...

thanks in advance for any help,

anthony

Could you add the line series as an XY Scatter series? use the same X
values as for the X Axis helper series.

The XY Scatter type can display markers or no markers, a line or no
line, any combination. When you change the chart type, you have a choice
of many variations of scatter styles. Then later, if you picked the
wrong type, double click on the series, and choose relevant options on
the Patterns tab.
