-ve values in Y Axis

Hi,

I gave a graph with date values on X-Axis & values from -50000 to 300000 on
Y-Axis. Currently my data labels on X Axis are seen touching accross the
'0'th position of Y axis (i.e. data labels are comming in middle of my graph
on 0th position across y axis). I would like to move down the data labels to
appear on x axis touching y axis at -50000 point instead of 0th point. Can
someone help me here?

Double-click on the primary axis. In the Format Axis dialog box, go to the
"Scale" tab. In the minimum value input, type in -50,000.

Double click the X axis, click on the Patterns tab, and choose Low for Tick
Labels. This leaves the axis where it is (at zero) but moves the labels to
the bottom of the chart.
