    Excel Chart Variable Y Axis

    I need to change the y axis to be a variable becuase the numbers I want show on my chart start at $.07 to $2,060,000 and span over the years 2009 to 1965. How do I do this?

    Year Cost Per GB of Disk Storage
    1965 2,057,610.00
    1971 300,000.00
    1980 193,000.00
    1985 71,000.00
    1989 36,000.00
    1995 680.00
    2000 6.90
    2004 0.70
    2009 0.07

    Can I format the axis? How? I need this done like yesterday... Can anyone please help. If you look at my chart the data for the years 1995 - 2009 don't even show up on my chart I need them to show up.

    See if the attached will do the trick. I formatted the axis as a base 10 logarithmic scale.
