Hello Jon,

I am a newbie to charts and i am hoping you can give me some pointers as i have been tasked with creating an XL solution for a manually produced ‘chart’ which is currently made by cutting and pasting multiple charts and visuals together.

I would be very grateful if you could point me in the right direction to creating this myself as having searched your blog i dont see anything similar.

I would describe it as a Bar chart with currencies on the Y axes and 2 vertical axes (start date & end date) in seperate columns to chart the sum of values between two dates.
Does this sound possible?
Many thanks in advance
