Default Logarithmic type charts

Is it possible to plot a log-log type chart in Excel? If so, how?

Create a XY Scatter chart. Then, double-click each axis in turn, and in
the resulting dialog box, from the Scale tab, check the 'log scale'
checkbox.

Hi Trevor
try using the X/Y Scatter diagram type. Format both axis (double click
on the axis to open the dialog) with a log scale

Frank,

Thanks for the link. Interesting site, but it doesn't quite answer
my question. I'm looking for a way to configure both the x and y
axes to a logarithmic scale. It seems that Excel only allows the
y-axis to be configured to a log scale. I'm hoping that there's a
trick.

Regards,
Trevor
