Hi,
This is a continuation to my previous response to your post.
Format the alignment of the X-axis labels to 270 degrees, so that the
numbers (especially hundreds and thousands) will not overlap upon each other.
To answer your second question:

Hi,
There may be more elegant and straight-forward methods that I don't know.
But you can mimic what you want by adding two more series to your graph as
described below:
Assuming that the x- and y- axes are in the decades 0.1, 1,10, and 100
create two helper columns with the following data. For illustrative

Thanks for you help Andy, but I still get the same results when I perform the
steps of your solution. I checked and verified that we have SP2 loaded.
Before I posted my question yesterday I sent my file to one of our Excel
"experts" here and he got the same result I did. After I read your response

In A1:A4 enter 4 identical numbers (1,1,1,1)
Make a pie chart
Format the chart to make the colors white and the borders black
Now you have a circle divided into four quarters.
Put you could have done with the the Paint drawing program!

I put your dates in A1:A6 and you numbers in B1:b6. Made a chart and got the
same trendline as you have
Click on the cell displaying Feb-08 and look in the Formula Bar. You will
see a date 01/02/2008 (or 02/01/2008 if you are using US dates - unlikely)
If you format the Feb-08 cell as General it will display 39497.Excel stores

Is there a way that I can create a blank, quartered pie chart that I can

Hi Giò,
Out of all the treemap vendors I’ve researched a company called The Hive Group seems to have the best and most well thought out treemaps.
They also have a service (HiveOnDemand) that lets individuals create treemaps without any technical knowledge (like me) straight from Excel. I've been using HiveOnDemand for a while and would highly recommend it!

Trendline

juanpa...@discussions.microsoft.com (juanpablo) — Tue, 05 Jan 2010 18:03:01 UT

I have the following data:
Feb-08 Mar-08 Abr-08 May-08 Jun-08 Jul-08
5000 3802 10400 7600 7400 9800
Whith the following trendline obtained from the chart:
y = 30,217x - 1E+06
How Do I estimate Ago-08
to replace the value of X should be x=9?
What happens for next Feb-09, should x= 14?
Thanks!

If your Month values are just text, then yes.
If they are real dates, Sep-08 is 39692, and Feb-09 is 39845, but from the
looks of your data values I would guess that it's more likely to be text.

Trend Line

juanpa...@discussions.microsoft.com (juanpablo) — Tue, 05 Jan 2010 16:00:01 UT

I have the following header:
Ene-08 Feb-08 Mar-08 Abr-08 May-08 Jun-08 Jul-08 Ago-08
with data.
If I ad a trendline that gives me an equation, lets say: y=-3242x+13
Being x the month, if I want to get data for month Sep-08, what value should
I use for x=9?
Is that applicable for all the months coming, lets say next february 09

Minor gridline values at tick marks - 2nd post

excellerz...@discussions.microsoft.com (ExcellerZero) — Tue, 05 Jan 2010 15:14:02 UT

Couldn't find my earlier question on this matter.
I have an XY scatter graph with log10 axes. How do I display the minor
gridline values between the powers of 10 (between .1 and 1, between 1 and 10,
and so on)?
As an aside, how do I look for all my posts, especially if I don't recall
which Excel category in which it was posted?
