A pivot chart, eh? They're not so flexible. Keep in mind that it's always
best to share as many details as possible when introducing the post, like
chart type, version number, specific formula that's giving difficulties.

So how are you making a pivot table that gives you a slot for 29 Feb 2009?
Pivot tables don't make up dates. Use the whole dates in the pivot table,
but if you only want to show the day number, use a custom date format that
only shows the day, not month and year.


It has TWO columns at the start that are BOTH date fields, and are both
formatted to show up as day of month, and day of week, so the chart shows
all 31 days in January, and the days of the week associated with those
days. Since it is a blood pressure tracking workbook, info like that is
good to see when the user/patient/doctor wants to examine the data for a
trend or spike, etc.

I am trying to perfect it. It is on the Microsoft Templates page under
community submitted templates. Folks are downloading it, so I want to
get it fixed up. I have since made some changes so it is not formatted
as it is on the MS site currently. That sheet uses a simple number for
the day of the month, so that column was not a date column.

Since I grabbed the sheet from someone else, I was unaware that it was
a pivot chart, as I have only recently become aware of the animal's
existence (thanks). Your help has taught me a lot from what you have
given to what I picked up as I have been doing this exercise in error
abatement. :-)
