A week is seven days, right? Format the axis scale so the min is 8/15 and
the major unit is 7 days.

Okay - so i want to set weekly dates at 7 day intervals starting Aug 15.
My
vertical axis records numbers at weekly intervals (every Saturday). How
do i
get the X axis to reflect weekly ticks Aug 15, Aug 22 etc so I can monitor
the changes?

You can set the min and max the same way, if you've made a line chart
with a
date axis. The particulars of how the controls are laid out in the dialog
are somewhat different, but you should be able to find them.

What I like to do is set the base unit to days, and the major unit to
months, typically 1 month. If I start on 1/1/2008 and end on 1/1/2009, I
get
a tick mark and label on the first of each month.

In the 2003 Version of Excel I was able to set time scales with a Min
Date
and Max Date - for example: 1/1/2008 - 12/31/2008. I have charts that
measure the Call volumes in our area per month and I am unable to see
each
month on the Horizontal Axis.

Thanks, Susie
