However, I'm having a problem and I wonder if you know the answer. I've stepped through your example multiple times. It works great until I get to the step of moving the first new A axis series, specifically: "The new XY series is totally misaligned from the line chart series..... double click on the series, and on the Axis tab, choose primary.' When I do this step, I do not get the result your tutorial shows. Instead, the chart is reformatted so that all of the A, B and C Plot series are oriented vertically along the y-axis (at x=0). When I look at the x-axis range, it has been reformatted to a huge min and max range (1900-1987), when I correct the min to 1/3/2007, the XY axis series data is correctly aligned, but all of the A, B, and C plot data disappears. Do you know the solution to this problem? Thanks for all of your help and tutorials! I’m very excited to create a panel chart with different scales using your tutorial.

Thanks anyway; keep on charting you chart god, you! Actually I think I have it now using this formula:

[4500]#,,;0

more by luck than judgement and help from a colleague! Thanks anyway; keep on charting you chart god, you!

It's all fine bar the custom number format for the left hand side y-axis. I have the scale set from 0 to 10,000 and want to display numbers from 0 to 4,500 in this format. Trouble is when I use this customer number format: [4500]#,,;#,##0; I get what I want except that the instead of 0, it displays as: 0,000. If I use this formula instead: [4500]#,,; I get the right format for the numbers including 0, but all the 4 digit numbers collapse and display across 3 lines. Any thoughts? (I'm actually using microsoft graph 2003 in powerpoint if that helps).

In addition to the economic factors, are there societal factors underlying these high rates? Thinks like perhaps, shame for losing one's job, shame for needing psychiatric help, and "saving face" through suicide? These are things westerners have heard of, but we don't know the extent of their truthfulness and impact on the situation. Andrew -
