What are your X values? Are they dates?

What is the type of category axis? Category ("Text" in 2007) or date-scale?
If date-scale, what is the base unit?

Dear Jon
I found where the problem lies
suppose a chart with 2 line series (further S1 and S2)
S1 is referenced to the 1st vertical axis (V1), S2 to the 2nd vertical
axis
(V2), so far OK
I added 2 series which represent the average of all timepoints in S1 and
S2
(further A1 and A2.
I want the averages to be referenced to their respective axis, meaning A1
ref to axis V1, A2 to axis V2 and also to be located at the end of series,
meaning @ the last datapoint
To perform the fiirst action, when I reference both A1 and A2 to their
respective V1 and V2, no problem
To perform 2n action, I changed A1's chart type to XY scatter, OK,
BUT from the moment I change the chart type of A2 to XYScatter, the
problems
comes in.
When I save the file and reopen the chart doen's showup unless preview,
resulting in changed formts AND S2 disappeared !
any suggestions ?

Did you start from a whole new worksheet or workbook?

Seems to me a printer driver would affect all charts.

Was the bad chart (or the good charts) created in an earlier version
of
Excel? I haven't experienced problems like this firsthand, but I've
heard
from folks who have had issues related to crossing versions.

Unfortunately your more robust means of recovery may be to rebuild
the
workbook and charts.

One workbook with 5 sheets with each different charts, Excel 2007,
Wind
XP.
One of the 5 charts is not shown when the workbook is opened
unless a
preview is performed,... and even then the format is changed since
the
original and objects in chart can not be changed.
On a second PC, also in Excel 2007-Win XP, this problem is not
encountered,
all graphs are as original format.
I contacted Microsoft for this problem but they claim problems
with
the
printer driver (HP). I also contacted HP for this problem but they
claim
problems with Office Excel.
Has enyone encountered this problem also ?
