= SUMMARY =

Usually, data in a chart is measured along the left Y-axis. A right Y- axis, which measures the data from one or more Y-series (rows or columns), can be added. Adding an identical right Y-axis that measures the same data at the same intervals can make the chart easier to read. Adding a Y-axis that uses a different scale or unit of measure from the left Y-axis can increase the information content of the chart.

For example, to add a right Y-axis with an expanded scale to measure unit price, and still have the left Y-axis measure total sales, do the following:

To Add or Remove a Right Y-Axis

 * 1) Choose Two Y-axis (ALT, O, T) from the Options menu.
 * 2) In the dialog box, select RIGHT for at least one Y-series to add a right Y-axis, or select LEFT for every Y-series to remove a right Y-axis.
 * 3) Choose OK (press ENTER).
