Line and bar charts with secondary axis

In VB what code do I need to create a chart with a secondary axis? Once created how then can I change the chart type for the data on the primary axis to a bar chart and the data on the secondary axis to a line chart?

RE: Line and bar charts with secondary axis

Hi Katy

Thankyou for your question

After some experimenting i have found the following code snippet which selects a series in a chart and then plots it against a secondary axis

ActiveChart.SeriesCollection(5).Select
ActiveChart.SeriesCollection(5).AxisGroup = 2


As you can see the series is identified by its index number in the collection and then sets the axisgroup property to 2

Hope this helps

Regards

Stephen
