875029 2010-04-11 01:35:00 Is it possible to define the range of a graph.
I have a graph setup as follows.
The graph displays the number of widjets sold by month and year. For the last 5 years the monthly numbers have been between 500 and 1100(nothing below 500). When I display them in a graph the lower half contains no data but the graph insists that the bottom line is 0.
I need to tell it that the bottom line is 500.
The top half of the graph is now very crowded. Without the bottom section the graph will disply more clearly.
Hope this makes sense.

Cheers
Colin

New the answer would be simple. As usual "help" was no help at all.
