Is it possible to have multiple Y axis on a chart?  I see that you can
have a primary and a secondary axis, however what if you need to have
many - say 5 or 6?  (Perhaps the measurement units are a different
format).

Thank you.

You can fake this, although by the time you're up to 5 or 6 axes, there's
not much room for data. Here's my example of a tertiary axis:

You could make a panel chart, like these examples:

Yes.  For multiple Y axis (3, 4, 5, 6 ... axes) Excel charts, try
EZplot or Multy_Y from Office Expander (www.OfficeExpander.com).
