Use the following Graph toolbar options to manipulate the appearance and output format of your graph.

The Graph toolbar provides you with these tools for working with graphs:
|

Function |
|---|---|

|
X-axis Source lets you select the source attributes for the X‑axis. These attributes are text labels, such as object name or type of operating system. |
|
|
Y-axis Source lets you select attributes for the Y‑axis. These attributes can be numeric fields from the object. Selectable items vary depending on the object. |
|
|
Copy lets you copy your graph to the clipboard as a bitmap, metafile, text, or OLE file. You can then paste the graph from the clipboard into a variety of Windows applications (word processor, email, spreadsheet, and so on). |

Zoom lets you zoom on data you specify. Click Zoom, then click and hold the mouse button to zoom on an area of interest. You can also hold the mouse button and drag the cursor across the chart to create a box around the area you want to view. When you release the mouse button, you zoom on the specified data. To return to the original view, click Zoom again. |

Print Preview lets you adjust your graph prior to printing. For example, you can print the graph with a legend that is separate from the rest of the graph, or indicate to print the graph with colors even if you will be printing on a black and white printer (useful for gray scale printing).
