Does Switch Row/Column on the Chart Tools Design tab do what you want?

Default Switching X Y axis in PP 2007

Hi,

Depends on the chart type.
If you have a column chart you will need to change it to Bar
If you have a line chart you will need to change it to xy-scatter AND
use work around tricks in order to get category labels on the vertical axis.

If it's xy-scatter you will need to alter the ranges used for the x and
y values.

Cheers
Andy
