At the moment my Chart looks like attached Access Chart. But I want it to look like attached Chart Data excel workbook.

Any help will be much appreciated.

Many Thanks

hi aman

As i understand it Excel and Access both use the MSGraph 'engine', so yes you can do the same thing in Access.

I find it best to add second axis the chart by hand rather than using the wizards (i do not even know if/where the options are)

1. double-click on the chart object in the form design view to select it
2. right-click on the data series you wish to show on a secondary axis
3. from the shortcut menu --> Format Data Series
4. Axis tab
5. Plot series on --> Secondary axis

Getting the exact appearance you are looking for may be trial and error through the formatting options exposed after double-click on the chart object.

TBH, I resort to Excel for 'fancy'/complex graphing reports... :eek:
