How do I graph data daily as a line graph across a calendar format
You mean with dates along the X axis? Make sure the dates are really dates,
and not just text labels that look like dates. Make a line chart. Go to Chart menu Chart Options Axes tab, and check the Time Scale option under Category (X) Axis. - Jon ------- Jon Peltier, Microsoft Excel MVP Tutorials and Custom Solutions Peltier Technical Services, Inc. - http://PeltierTech.com _______ "Glani" wrote in message ... -- glani |

Thank you. I can make a line graph but I need to graph each day across a
calendar type format. Like if you opened up Outlook and chose to view the calendar by month then you would see a months worth of data graphed across each day. That's what I'm trying to achieve but using just Excel. I'm not even sure it can be done in Excel. -- glani "Jon Peltier" wrote: You mean with dates along the X axis?

Hi,
It's possible but not a built-in option. You need to build a variation of a Panel chart http://peltiertech.com/Excel/Comment...DayOfYear.html Basically each days data needs to be plotted as a line. The values used need to be altered in order for the line to appear in specific cell of the panel that reflects the date of the data set.
