There are gaps between the dates plotted in my chart.

There are gaps between the dates plotted in my chart.

If the datasheet data for the category axis contains date number formatting, Microsoft Graph automatically uses a special type of axis in your chart called a time-scale axis. A time-scale axis shows a blank category for dates for which you have no data. If you do not want to see these gaps— for example, if you have data for 1-Jan, 15-Jan, 3-Feb, 12-Feb, and 2-Mar, and you want to plot the days next to each other— you can change the time-scale axis to a standard category axis. On the Chart menu, click Chart Options, click the Axes tab, and then click Category under Category (X) axis.
