Steve, <<Graphics`Graphics` I have taken the following from the Help Browser and added Ticks-> .... It seems that the BarLabels are not shown when the ticks are specified. You might also like to look at the function GeneralizedBarChart in the same package. BarChart[{1, 3, 4, 5, 3.5, 3}, {3, 2, 5, 3}, BarSpacing -> -.3, BarGroupSpacing -> .5, BarStyle -> {GrayLevel[.6], Hue[0]}, BarEdgeStyle -> {{Dashing[{.01}],Hue[0]},GrayLevel[0]}, BarLabels -> {"Apr","May","Jun","Jul","Aug","Sep"}, PlotLabel -> "Projected and Current Profit, Tourist Season", DefaultFont -> {"Helvetica", 9}, Ticks -> {{{2,"Two"},{3,"Three"}},{{3,"Three"},{4,"Four"}}} ] -- Allan --------------------- Allan Hayes Mathematica Training and Consulting Leicester UK www.haystack.demon.co.uk hay at haystack.demon.co.uk Voice: +44 (0)116 271 4198 Fax: +44 (0)870 164 0565 <com3 at ix.netcom*NOSPAM*.com> wrote in message news:8odn77$ha at smc.vnet.net... > Hello, > > I'm hoping someone can show a new/infrequent user of ver 3.0 what he's > doing wrong and provide a simple solution to my problem. > > I'm trying to produce a bar chart with readable x axis tick labels.
