Troubleshooting Text and Data
Where did the data for my chart go?
I typed new text or numbers on the datasheet, but the data labels in the chart didn't update.
Text is missing along the horizontal axis of the chart.
The text box, picture, or floating text I added to my user-defined chart type is not included when I create a chart.
Why does the font size in my chart keep changing?

Using dates in charts
Troubleshooting Display Options
I'm using dates on my chart, but I don't get a time-scale axis.
There are gaps between the dates plotted in my chart.
My xy (scatter) chart doesn't use my values along the horizontal (x) axis.
