The X, Y, and Y2 properties of the ChartArea object returns Axis objects that allow you to customize the appearance of the chart axes. The axes are represented by sub-properties of the ChartArea property: ChartArea.AxisX, ChartArea.AxisY, and ChartArea.AxisY2. Each of these properties returns an Axis object with the following main properties:
