Anne:

Double click any value on your x axis, this will bring up Axis format form.

Select scale tab, check Logarithmic checkbox. Make sure that your minimum
value is 1, 10, 100, and your major & minor units must be multiples of 10.

Make sure you create (or change to) a XY Scatter chart. Now, double-click
the x-axis and in the resulting dialog box, select the Scale tab. The last
step should be self-evident. {grin}
