Default Scaling Graphs

You have to alter the X values of the added series to make their scale
compatible with the existing category or time scale axis, or coordinate a
secondary X axis if that's what you're using.

Hi again

I've been looking a little further on the problem. It seem as the changing
of scale on x-axs i ok, but my budget lines and deadlines don't follow
this
change. These lines has been added using the following link:

The problem might have somthing to do with the use of a secondary axis...

Can anyone help me out hire?

Hi Jon

Thanks for coming back on the issue - I'm quite busy at the moment but I
will try to make an explanation during the weekend.

Hi Jon

That did the job - shame on me for not seeing this my self :-)

All how this just lead to the next problem - the change of scale
didn't
work
like I supposed. The timescale is changed allright, but some of the
information (vertical deadlines and budget lines) get messed up, when
changing view :-(

It's a bit difficult to explain but thanks for the help so far.

You didn't hint at where the code stops, or what error messages you
saw.

One thing I noticed: Change this (and related statements):

StartDate = Range(i2)

to

StartDate = Range("i2").Value
