Hello,

I have an Excel chart that appears to have a bug, as it draws a second
line outside of the Y axis. The line is upright, but slightly shorter
and to the left of the axis. If I hover over the line, the caption
read "Value Axis", the same as it does over the real value axis.
Between the two lines, the caption reads "Chart Area", as it normally
would outside of the plot area.

If I change some of the data to be plotted, the line may disappear or
even change its weighting from thin to thick. The line always
reappears or returns to the same weighting if I reinstate the data,
although I can see no pattern in this. If I zoom to 200% or 400%, the
line is still there on the screen, although it does not print.

The chart is part of a workbook that is distributed to 100+ people in
the office. The line appears randomly on some charts but not on
others. We use either Excel 2002 or Excel 2003 at work, and I have
checked this on Excel 2000 at home, always with the same results.

Can anybody throw some light on this. Many thanks in anticipation.

Regards,

Philip Clarke
