Remarks

The Axis object is a member of the Axes collection.

Use Axes (Type, AxisGroup) where Type is the axis type and AxisGroup is the axis group to return a single Axis object. Type can be one of the following XlAxisType constants: xlCategory, xlSeries, or xlValue. AxisGroup can be one of the following XlAxisGroup constants: xlPrimary or xlSecondary. For more information, see the Axes(Object, XlAxisGroup) method.

Properties

Application	When used without an object qualifier, this property returns an _Application object that represents the Microsoft Word application. When used with an object qualifier, this property returns an _Application object that represents the creator of the specified object (you can use this property with an OLE Automation object to return the application of that object). Read-only.
AxisBetweenCategories	True if the value axis crosses the category axis between categories. Read/write.
AxisGroup	Returns the type of axis group. Read-only.
AxisTitle	Returns the title of the specified axis. Read-only.
BaseUnit	Returns or sets the base unit for the specified category axis. Read/write.
BaseUnitIsAuto	True if Microsoft Word chooses appropriate base units for the specified category axis. The default value is True. Read/write.
Border	Returns the border of the object. Read-only.
CategoryNames	Returns or sets all the category names for the specified axis, as a text array. Read/write.
CategoryType	Returns or sets the category axis type. Read/write.
Creator	Returns a 32-bit integer that indicates the application in which the specified object was created. Read-only.
Crosses	Returns or sets the point on the specified axis where the other axis crosses. Read/write.
CrossesAt	Returns or sets the point on the value axis where the category axis crosses it. Applies only to the value axis. Read/write.
DisplayUnit	Returns or sets the unit label for the value axis. Read/write.
DisplayUnitCustom	If the value of the DisplayUnit property is xlCustom, the DisplayUnitCustom property returns or sets the value of the displayed units. The value must be from 0 through 10E307. Read/write.
DisplayUnitLabel	Returns the DisplayUnitLabel object for the specified axis. Returns Nothing if the HasDisplayUnitLabel property is set to False. Read-only.
Format	Returns the line, fill, and effect formatting for the object. Read-only.
HasDisplayUnitLabel	True if the label specified by the DisplayUnit or DisplayUnitCustom property is displayed on the specified axis. The default value is True. Read/write.
HasMajorGridlines	True if the axis has major gridlines. Only axes in the primary axis group can have gridlines. Read/write.
HasMinorGridlines	True if the axis has minor gridlines. Only axes in the primary axis group can have gridlines. Read/write.
HasTitle	True if the axis or chart has a visible title. Read/write.
Height	Returns the height, in points, of the object.
Left	Returns the distance, in points, from the left edge of the object to the left edge of the chart area.
LogBase	Returns or sets the base of the logarithm when you are using log scales. Read/write.
MajorGridlines	Returns the major gridlines for the specified axis. Only axes in the primary axis group can have gridlines. Read-only.
MajorTickMark	Returns or sets the type of major tick mark for the specified axis. Read/write XlTickMark.
MajorUnit	Returns or sets the major units for the value axis. Read/write.
MajorUnitIsAuto	True if Microsoft Word calculates the major units for the value axis. Read/write.
MajorUnitScale	Returns or sets the major unit scale value for the category axis when the CategoryType property is set to xlTimeScale. Read/write.
MaximumScale	Returns or sets the maximum value on the value axis. Read/write.
MaximumScaleIsAuto	True if Microsoft Word calculates the maximum value for the value axis. Read/write.
MinimumScale	Returns or sets the minimum value on the value axis. Read/write.
MinimumScaleIsAuto	True if Microsoft Word calculates the minimum value for the value axis. Read/write.
MinorGridlines	Returns the minor gridlines for the specified axis. Only axes in the primary axis group can have gridlines. Read-only.
MinorTickMark	Returns or sets the type of minor tick mark for the specified axis. Read/write.
MinorUnit	Returns or sets the minor units on the value axis. Read/write.
MinorUnitIsAuto	True if Microsoft Word calculates minor units for the value axis. Read/write.
MinorUnitScale	Returns or sets the minor unit scale value for the category axis when the CategoryType property is set to xlTimeScale. Read/write.
Parent	Returns the parent for the specified object. Read-only.
ReversePlotOrder	True if Microsoft Word plots data points from last to first. Read/write.
ScaleType	Returns or sets the value axis scale type. Read/write.
TickLabelPosition	Describes the position of tick-mark labels on the specified axis. Read/write.
TickLabels	Returns the tick-mark labels for the specified axis. Read-only.

Type	Returns the axis type.
Width	Returns the width, in points, of the object.
