RFS,
Now I'm a little confused. You want the spikes as far right as possible? So, it's the right spike as far right without touching the end, correct? I was trying to put the middle spike in the middle of the histogram, which would move the right spike to the left a little.

Can you explain why you go to the right?

Thanks again!

Pete
