Hello All, In my efforts to create a two-axis graph in Mathematica v6. I came across a Mathematica Technical Support FAQ titled "Can I create a two- axis graph in Mathematica?" There are two versions of this FAQ the most recent and updated version of the FAQ can be found at the following URL: http://support.wolfram.com/mathematica/graphics/combine/twoaxisgraph.en.html The URL site provides a Mathematica notebook titled "twoaxisgraph.en" which may be downloaded. I have downloaded the "twoaxisgraph.en" notebook and have tried to use it for my application but I continue to have problems with this code. Without making any changes to the downloaded notebook and when evaluating the part of the notebook that is for Mathematica 6.0 and later, I do not get the same output plot as originally displayed in the downloaded notebook. Specifically I am referring to the output plots Out[4], Out[5], Out[7], and Out[8] that appear in the first part of the web page. Instead, the output has "Null^4" preceding the plot and the image size of the output plot is small and must be resized manually to be able to be viewed. This is one problem with the part of the notebook dealing with "Working with Continuous Plots" with "Mathematica 6.0 and Later." The second problem is that it seems this code does not entirely do what I need it to do. Ideally I would like to have something similar to the TwoAxisPlot command that is used in the section "Working with Continuous Plots" for "Mathematica Versions Prior to 6.0." That version allows you to specify the common "x-range" to both plots and choose the "y-ranges" for each individual plot to be plotted. This way you can see both plots in their entirety regardless if one plots range is many times larger than the others. Please refer to both the input and output graphics of the last section of the web page, specifically In[2], In[3], Out[2], and Out[3]. I need help with either making the code for "Working with Continuous Plots" with "Mathematica 6.0 and Later" do what the code for "Working with Continuous Plots" with "Mathematica Versions Prior to 6.0" does, or change the code in "Working with Continuous Plots" with "Mathematica Versions Prior to 6.0" so that it will work in Mathematica v6. (Please refer to the URL) I am not very knowledgeable in Mathematica programming so any assistance with this matter would be greatly appreciated. Any suggestions or insight on how to change this notebook code to apply to my needs would also help. As a reminder I am using Mathematica v6.0.2.0. Thank you, Tony
