How to change tick mark lables in z axis from values to texts?

Guest

I am drawing a column chart for the dynamic scales in a music piece. Data
value I key-in the spreedsheet refers to other customary names (texts). For
example, 7 represents ff (fortissimo), 6 represents f (forte), 5 for mf
(mezzo forte), 4 for mp (mezzo piano), etc. I want to show these customary
names instead of showing values in the z axis. Could anybody teach me how to
change these tick mark lables in z axis from values to texts?

You can add them manually using text boxes (omit the default scale labels).

You've asked this in a WORD forum, by mistake. I think you'll need to ask in an
Excel charting forum, instead :)

I assumed the OP was using Microsoft Graph in Word.
