Hi,
Because this is the way Microsoft programmed it.
The way to switch fields on the pivot chart is to move the fields in the
pivot table. When the pivot chart is selected the Pivot Table Field List
shows the Ledgend Fields (Series) where the Column Labels are normally
displayed and the Axis Fields (Categories) where the Row Labels usually are.
This is where you swap fields.
