 I notice that when I create a listing of months and money going
 
 March  100.00
 April 200.00
 May 150.00
 June100.00
 
 The graphs always give me the information from bottom to top.
 
 June   - - - - -
 May- - - - - - -
 April- - - - - - - - - -
 March - - - - -
 
 I have manually changed the data ranges starting with the last item and 
 ending with the first, but the column or bar graphs always seem to give 
 me the same visual of last to first on the chart/graph.
 
 I do not know what is going on with this.  I am dealing with a graph 
 showing month and income is a bar chart, but having the current month on 
 the left and the oldest month on the right just does not work for others.
 
 Here is the Data info in the wizard.
 
 Data Range:
  $'Royalty Checks'.$A$5:$B$31
 
 Data Series:
  column B:
  $'Royalty Checks'.$A$5:$A$31
 
  Y-Values $'Royalty Checks'.$A$5:$B$31:
  $'Royalty Checks'.$B$5:$B$31
 
 When I do a highlighting for bottom to top or top to bottom, the ranges 
 and graph always is the same.  When I revers the order of the beginning 
 and end values for the cells, I still get the same order of the graph 
 visual elements.
 
 I do remember that last year, when I created a chart like this with 
 3.3.x [late version] or 3.4.x [early version], it did work file.  If I 
 highlighted the top to bottom, it showed the order of the elements 
 matching top to bottom.  I placed the chart/graph next to the columns 
 [in column C] so the value of the cell is in alignment with the bar on 
 the chart's graphic. It is used to watch the trend of the income from 
 that person's monthly royalty checks.  Since the earlier spreadsheet was 
 lost with a computer crash and the backup disk was damaged, I cannot go 
 back to the old file and just update it.
 Just check Reverse direction

 It works for bar chart, column chart ...etc
 It works with text value, numeric value...

Hi,

The Y-axis is a numeric scale with start, end and some interval.
The scale can be adjusted to be logarithmic or in reverse order. Just
double-click the chart and then the y-axis.
The order of the corresponding cell vector does not matter as long as
the cell values are numeric.

Correction: In a vertical bar chart the vertical axis is the x-axis. It
can be set to either one of Automatic (number or text), Date (number
with special intervals) or Text. Text scales are shown in the order of
appearance, numeric scales are sorted ascendingly or descendingly. If
you have text data, there is no choice other than Text.
