Properties

	Name	Description
	Application	When used without an object qualifier, returns an Application object that represents the Microsoft PowerPoint application. When used with an object qualifier, returns an Application object that represents the creator of the specified object (you can use this property with an 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 Boolean value.
	AxisGroup	Returns the type of axis group. Read-only XlAxisGroup.
	AxisTitle	Returns the title of the specified axis. Read-only AxisTitle.
	BaseUnit	Returns or sets the base unit for the specified category axis. Read/write XlTimeUnit.
	BaseUnitIsAuto	true if Microsoft PowerPoint chooses appropriate base units for the specified category axis. The default is true. Read/write Boolean value.
	Border	Returns the border of the object. Read-only ChartBorder.
	CategoryNames	Returns or sets all the category names as a text array for the specified axis. Read/write.
	CategoryType	Returns or sets the category axis type. Read/write XlCategoryType.
	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 64-bit signed integer.
	CrossesAt	Returns or sets the point on the value axis where the category axis crosses it. Applies only to the value axis. Read/write double-precision floating-point number.
	DisplayUnit	Returns or sets the unit label for the value axis. Read/write XlDisplayUnit, xlCustom, or xlNone.
	DisplayUnitCustom	If the value of the DisplayUnit property is xlCustom, returns or sets the value of the displayed units. Read/write double-precision floating-point number.
	DisplayUnitLabel	Returns the DisplayUnitLabel object for the specified axis. Returns a null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic) if the HasDisplayUnitLabel property is set to false. Read-only.
	Format	Returns the line, fill, and effect formatting for the object. Read-only ChartFormat.
	HasDisplayUnitLabel	true if the label specified by the DisplayUnit or DisplayUnitCustom property is displayed on the specified axis. The default is true. Read/write Boolean value.
	HasMajorGridlines	true if the axis has major gridlines. Read/write Boolean value.
	HasMinorGridlines	true if the axis has minor gridlines. Read/write Boolean value.
	HasTitle	true if the axis or chart has a visible title. Read/write Boolean value.
	Height	Returns the height, in points, of the object. Read-only double-precision floating-point number.
	Left	Returns the distance, in points, from the left edge of the object to the left edge of the chart area. Read-only double-precision floating-point number.
	LogBase	Returns or sets the base of the logarithm when you are using log scales. Read/write double-precision floating-point number.
	MajorGridlines	Returns the major gridlines for the specified axis. Read-only Gridlines.
	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 double-precision floating-point number.
	MajorUnitIsAuto	true if Microsoft PowerPoint calculates the major units for the value axis. Read/write Boolean value.
	MajorUnitScale	Returns or sets the major unit scale value for the category axis when the CategoryType property is set to xlTimeScale. Read/write XlTimeUnit.
	MaximumScale	Returns or sets the maximum value on the value axis. Read/write double-precision floating-point number.
	MaximumScaleIsAuto	true if Microsoft PowerPoint calculates the maximum value for the value axis. Read/write Boolean value.
	MinimumScale	Returns or sets the minimum value on the value axis. Read/write double-precision floating-point number.
	MinimumScaleIsAuto	true if Microsoft PowerPoint calculates the minimum value for the value axis. Read/write Boolean value.
	MinorGridlines	Returns the minor gridlines for the specified axis. Read-only Gridlines.
	MinorTickMark	Returns or sets the type of minor tick mark for the specified axis. Read/write XlTickMark.
	MinorUnit	Returns or sets the minor units on the value axis. Read/write double-precision floating-point number.
	MinorUnitIsAuto	true if Microsoft PowerPoint calculates minor units for the value axis. Read/write Boolean value.
	MinorUnitScale	Returns or sets the minor unit scale value for the category axis when the CategoryType property is set to xlTimeScale. Read/write XlTimeUnit.
	Parent	Returns the parent for the specified object. Read-only.
	ReversePlotOrder	true if Microsoft PowerPoint plots data points from last to first. Read/write Boolean value.
	ScaleType	Returns or sets the value axis scale type. Read/write XlScaleType.
	TickLabelPosition	Describes the position of tick-mark labels on the specified axis. Read/write XlTickLabelPosition.
	TickLabels	Returns the tick-mark labels for the specified axis. Read-only TickLabels.
	TickLabelSpacing	Returns or sets the number of categories or series between tick-mark labels. Read/write 64-bit signed integer.
	TickLabelSpacingIsAuto	Returns or sets a value that indicates whether the tick label spacing is automatic. Read/write Boolean value.
	TickMarkSpacing	Returns or sets the number of categories or series between tick marks. Read/write 64-bit signed integer.
	Top	Returns the distance, in points, from the top edge of the object to the top of row 1 (on a worksheet) or the top of the chart area (on a chart). Read-only double-precision floating-point number.
	Type	Returns the axis type. Read-only XlAxisType.
	Width	Returns the width, in points, of the object. Read-only double-precision floating-point number.
