Dump the data into a worksheet, and define a named range that includes all
of the data. Something like

Insert menu Names Define dialog

Name: PT_DataBase
RefersTo:
=Offset(DataSheet!$A$1,0,0,COUNTA(DataSheet!$A:$A) ,COUNTA(DataSheet!$1:$1))

Then make a pivot table, using this defined name as the source data range,
and group dates as appropriate.

I have an Access Database that has thousands of records in it. Each record
has the following fields (simplified): Date, Site, Seconds

I have a workbook that wueries the database, and brings in data into a
table
for each site that has the Date and Seconds on each line of the table.

I would like to graph the data, based on groupings that the user will
choose, so maybe they would like to each data point on the line be the
average for a week, and the line would show 10 weeks, etc.

What I am struggling with is how to get from the frist table, to one that
is
grouped by day, or week, or month or qrtr, etc. in an automated way.

Anyone have any ideas/examples they could share? I've gotta belive that
this
has been done before, and I am just overlooking the obvious.

Thanks.
