Display text part of a Dual value when using the numeric part

Hi Guys,

I have a bar chart that I would like to contain a reference line to separate work in progress bars from completed bars. To add the reference line to the dimension axis it needs to be set to continuous and use the Dual function to assign a numeric value to my text categories however when I do this it changes the Dimension Legends to the numeric value.

I would like to be able to use the numeric functionality but display the text values. Any ideas?

Thanks
Nick

Got it now Bill. Thank you. I think it was my fault. I was viewing it in my Inbox and didn't realise I had to click on the message title to see everything in your response. I have now found it and it works perfectly.

Thanks very much for your help (and speedy response both times)

In trying to apply your solution I've noticed that the labels aren't sorting in the same order as the bars and nothing that I do fixes it. The labels in your solution are currently showing in the reverse order of the bars for some reason. Any ideas?

Thanks
