    log axis and plotting problem

    when i choose to use the logarithmic graph/chart, it changes the y-axis but leaves the x-axis to remain for use with my own data. what i want to do is have both the x and y axis' present themselves in the logarithmic form but then be able to plot points on the graph that fall between both the x and y axis values. it has been a couple years for me and this is a lot of refresher course for me lol. any help would be greatly appreciated, even if it does prove not to be possible to do as i wish.

    thanx,
    jeff

    You need to use a xy-scatter chart type and apply Log scale setting to both axis separately

    Double-click on each axis in turn and look on the Scale tab.

    You have a line chart. Make it a scatter (x-y) plot as Andy suggested.
