- I have been busy last few days both at office and home. While work is keeping me busy at office, at home I am occupied with learning how to drive.

I took my permanent license exam today and failed miserably. My examiner was surprised that I failed on so many counts, once I actually joined the opposite lane upon turning left, the examiner almost fainted and told me aloud to change lanes, think I got way too confused and tensed up, well whatever is the case I am going to test another time later next week, hopefully this time it should go through. - I am going to schedule a server move for PHD probably this weekend. I am just going to move all my stuff from the current server to something more professional and large enough so that I dont have to worry about the increasing traffic and bandwidth for a while.

That makes it possible to get the column chart not to start at zero.
Andy - yes, it is currently set to 'auto', which defaults to a zero base for positive values, but you can change that by left-clicking the chart, then choosing (in Excel 2007):
"Chart Tools/Layout/Axes/Primary Vertical Axis/More Primary Vertical Axis Options"
PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT: When manually editing a chart's minimum/maximum axis values, PLEASE be sure there's a valid reason and that doing so won't skew the message shown by the data (e.g. by exaggerating differences). If in doubt, go back and read Tufte. (W.W.T.D.?)
