Jon,

Many thanks. Your suggestion did the trick. Never would have figured it
out on my own.

Excel saw the dates and assumed you wanted a time scale axis.

Choose Chart Options from the Chart menu, click on the Axes tab, and check
Category for Category (X) Axis.

Trying to do a simple high-low-close stock chart. I have these three
items listed for each trading day in columns on the worksheet. Also have
corresponding trading dates in a column. The chart insists on showing on
the X axis all dates, including non-trading dates. On the body of the
chart there are blanks between data points, corresponding to the
non-trading dates. How can I get the X axis to omit the non-trading
dates?

Thanks in advance.
