I have a user who wants to plot a 3-D graph in Excel with Z, Y amd Z axes. Is this possible? if so, how do we accomplish it?

thanks.

surely you can just choose a 3d column chart - the last one should do you nicely

no you can plot 3,

you must first select the data that needs to be plotted, then format the data and choose Plot 2nd Y axis. This will allow you to have a seprate axis on the other side of the chart.


-Hope this helps.
 
Well, from what I have been able to gather so far and what all your contributions suggest, there is no way in excel to create a 3-D graph with X, Y and Z- axis. If some figures out how, please keep me posted.

Thanks a lot.

I took your advice, and read it. Not something I would read but non the less interesting.

"On the other hand in the case of (2) the Physician, though I shall here also see a line (D'A'E') with a bright centre (A'), yet it will shade away less rapidly to dimness, because the sides (A'C', A'B') recede less rapidly into the fog: and what appear to me the Physician's extremities, viz. D' and E', will not be not so dim as the extremities of the Merchant."

Thanks for the thought!
